The Last Olympian by Rick RiordanMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
I was a little let down by this book, hence it took between double and triple the length of regular time it would take me to read. Maybe it was because I was just tired of the storyline of Kronos coming to attack Olympus, or the storyline that some way Luke could be saved. (And i really didn't like or care for either of those characters) Compared to the 4 previous books this book was boring. The characters and their stories were repetitive (and i believe if you are going to read a series by the 3rd or 4th book you know majority of the background info so there is no need for the author to repeat it several times in each story). I really enjoyed the storyline of Rachel Elizabeth Dare and how she ended up being the Oracle but was going to try and live her life like the rest of the demigods. When Riordan was writing about her transformation it was very interesting and in depth. Finally, Percy and Annabeth are hooking up which took forever but it's a good thing I guess......I found her character a bit overbearing at times so I wouldn't want to be in Percy's shoes! Sadly the book only got an ok rating as I hoping it would be like the others in the series, but it was kind of a disappointment.
