The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan is the first book out of the series of Percy Jackson and The Olympians. This book has Greek gods, satyrs, hell hounds, furies, etc. This book is about Percy Jackson finding out his father is a Greek god, Poseidon. Percy must go on a quest to find out who stole Zeus' lightning bolt and bring it back to him.I can not stop reading this book! If you like action and Greek myths, you will LOVE this book like I do. You really get hooked in and you can not stop reading! You feel like your really in the book because Rick Riordan (the author) really describes everything. My Two advices to you is learn a little about the Greek gods before you read this book and do not judge this book by its cover. When I first saw this book I said to myself, wow this book looks boyish and bad. But after I read twenty pages I said to myself, Oh my god! This book is SO good! Everything else is have fun and enjoy the book!
P.S. Rick Riordan is the best author ever!
nice job sierra,i think you are really understanding the book so far.You will love the series if you don't already!
ReplyDeleteYour voice and enthusiasm really comes through in this post.
ReplyDeleteTake a look at your second paragraph where you say, "You really get hooked in and you can't stop reading!" Did you mean to say, "I really got hookd in and I couldn't stop reading!"? Do you see the difference between the two different ways of saying this? One is about how you, Sierra felt when you read the book. The other way tells other people how they might feel when they read the book.
Remember, your goal is to talk about the book from your point of view.
