Oh my gods! I have to rant about the wonderful awesomeness of The Son of Neptune!

Ok it was amazing!

When Nico first showed up I was like WHAT? YOU KNEW ABOUT THE ROMAN CAMP BEFORE THE LOST HERO AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ANYONE! And I know the whole Roman, Greek issues, but still, and he didn't even try to help Percy! But I forgive him.

I can't believe that Bianca would choose re-birth without telling Nico. I kind of can believe but not completely. I think she left on her own, or Gaea is using her or something. Leaving her brother in more than one lifetime (technically) I just don't want to believe it.

Frank's definitely... interesting. So he almost burned out his life for freeing Death, and yet he's still alive. Percy gets his awesomely amazing water powers and Frank can turn into an elephant... ok I think Percy got the better end of the stick (get it stick, because his life depends on a stick). So, Frank and Hazel are a couple now (must come up with couple name!) (Is it just me or is Rick Riordan getting more couples together faster?)

Mars is nothing like Ares. Mars has more strategy then Ares does, and Mars is defiantly less violent. Yet, they both hate Percy (Percy just has a knack for getting all powerful immortal beings on his bad side, yet he usually just gets the major gods on his bad side, not the minor ones)

My first thoughts on Hazel were that she was in the Lotus Hotel and Casino. And then I find out she's kind of like Frankenstein (this is a reference to Leo saying something like that's Frankenstein thinking) and I'm really shocked. The whole precious metal thing is cool, but it's interesting that it's cursed.

Before I found out about the whole Sammy, Leo, thing, I thought that Hazel and Frank are going to be really tense around him, because of his fire powers, and their stick. I still think things are going to be tense, because it's a (possible) love triangle.

Oh, and the whole Sammy Valdez, Leo Valdez thing I'm shocked. What I'm thinking is he's like Leo's great grandparent or grandparent or something, I mean they look alike and didn't Gaea say something like Sammy moved to Texas, where Leo's from? Could there be a Hazel and Leo couple now?

Another theory about Sammy and Leo, Rebirth? I mean Sammy didn't have to be a demigod to choose re-birth. He just had to achieve Elysium.

I don't think it's possible for the Lotus Hotel and Casino to come into play. I mean he would've lost his memories of his old life due to the never ending fun, and Leo has a history.

But one thing is for sure about Leo and Hazel. They are the only two (as we know of) that have a past with Gaea.

Tyson and Ella= so cute. Two (friendly) monsters together= awesomeness.

Piper, Jason. Jason, Reyna. So they aren't technically a couple yet (either of them) but they are defiantly on the verge of becoming a couple (the next book will, hopefully, revel all the drama)

Octavian is trouble. I mean blackmail really who would sneak that low? Oh, I know Octavian would! He does slaughter Teddy Bears, and Percy's poor Panda Pillow Pet anybody who slaughters Teddy Bears must be evil!

I love all the Percy Jackson references. Ex: Santa Claus' evil twin: don't even think about It., Percy: Canadians. Frank: Excuse me!

is run by Amazons I knew it! (ok maybe it was just a theory)

I love Percy's reckless/daring behavior (the gorgon's blood gamble) and I love how Percy got his memory back

I'm really surprised Percy's a praetor, but I'm not surprised that he wouldn't sleep in Jason's room.

Which is better? O Iris, goddess of the rainbows, accept my offering or Fleecy do me a solid. Show me...

Poor Percy with his tie- died man-bag.

It took me a second to realize why the name Hylla sounded familiar, but then I was like, OH! I know why Hylla might kill Percy, or why Reyna didn't like Percy (at first)

Here's some math for you (about oracles)

1 Rachel 1,000 Octavian's

I'm so happy The Son of Neptune didn't end as cliff hang-y as The Lost Hero. I mean it's still cliff hang-y, but not as much as before.

My crazy theories about The Mark of Athena that I probably will laugh about next fall: I think it's about Annabeth, but I don't know how she could be trouble,(except of course her jealousy) I mean sure she hates Hera/Juno but Percy has his memory back now! I do have one theory: Annabeth gets a new power from Athena, because all the others of the seven have super cool powers. Hmm ideas people...
