“Thebattle of the labyrinth” is the fourth book in the “Percy Jackson and theOlympians” series written by Rick Riordan. A series which follows Greekdemi-gods born in our contemporary society; as well as, and how they have to goon quests in order to protect this world from the risen Titans.

Percyis going to start in a new school next year; he goes there to a summerpresentation and finds that Rachel, the girl who could see through the mist hefound on last year’s quest attended to that particular school. But things couldnot get easy, even on a new school monsters had to find him and ruineverything.
Then,when he arrives to camp half-blood things have changed, Mr. D is gone. Thisyear’s quest will be Annabeth great opportunity, a quest which will make themnavigate though Daelus labyrinth in order to keep Luke and Kronos out of thecamp.
Nervousabout the prophecy she was given Annabeth will lead them through and adventurein which they might need help from unexpected people.

“Thebattle of the labyrinth” was a really compelling and fast paced book. So farthis has been my favorite out of the series. I think the kids have grown up alittle and that is noticeable, also it makes it easier for me to connect withthe characters. The adventure was full of mini-adventures in between whichmakes the book really easy to get though. More Greek mythology creatures andgods appear on this book, making noticeable how well the author knows about it.These books take a turn into the Greek mythology, still keeping most of itscharacters intact. I mean Hera, for example appears a couple of times in thisbook and she is this maternal but still avenger goddess, which matches themyths written about her.

Everythingtaking into account, I think Percy Jackson and the Olympians is a series Ishould have started reading sooner, because it is compelling, interesting andfull of adventures.

October Wrap Up - November TBR

Hello again everyone, Today starts a new month and that means that it is time to wrap up the previous month and set this month's TBR. Last month I set an ambitious TBR which I was unable to complete entirely, but I did manage to get a lot read which makes me kind of happy. As I also said on the previous month's post I was going to center this past month's TBR on the "Sweep/ Wicca" series by Cate Tiernan, and that is what I did. I managed to finish the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, and get thought half of the eleventh. I have enjoyed most of this books, however the last two, Seeker and Origins, change the point of view and I have not been able to click with them as I was able to so with the other ones. As for the November TBR, I want to still finish this series, reading the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth and sixteenth books in the series, Eclipse, Reckoning, Full Circle and Night Child. Appart from that, I want to keep finishing s...

Wrapping up March and April, plus May TBR

Wow it has been a long time since I posted something, and I know I keep repeating myself but life happens and too many things too little time. Therefore, I will be catching up on March and April. March was a good reading month, but April a disaster. I finished eight books in March, all thanks to Richelle Mead and her captivating spin-off series “Bloodlines”. I did not meet my TBR but once I finished “The Golden Lily”, which was the book in my TBR, I couldn’t stop myself for reaching to the next one in the series, and then the next, and so on until I was done with the series. That means I read: “The golden Lily”, “The Indigo Spell”, “The fiery heart”, “Silver Shadows” and “Ruby Circle”. Luckily even if I felt kind of in no mood to keep going with another book, which we all know happens after series finish. I picked up “Gemina” the second book in the “Iluminae” series by Amy Kauffman and Jay Kristoff and there was no slump. I read the book, which has over six hundred p...
