Cute ending to a fun series!
I absolutely adored the first, more character-driven half. I felt relatively indifferent about most of the action after that. But at the end of the day, I'm aware that I am no longer necessarily the target audienve of this series, and while I do feel I can spot some personal shortcomings within it due to a lack of nostalgic attachment, I can safely say that I definitely believe it's a well-crafted and fun book series with sweet characters. Could it have been done in four books? Possibly. Am I glad I got five anyway? Sure!
So now, after marathoning all five books, I 1. am very ready for the tv show and 2. looking forward to potentially checking out the followup stories and more Rick Riordan in general!
