All you need to know about 

THE HEROES OF OLYMPUS 

Author : Rick Riordan 

The story takes off a few months after the events of The Last Olympian and is based on the second Great Prophecy. Percy Jackson is missing, and three days after his disappearance, Annabeth Chase gets a vision from the Goddess Hera that the answer was at the Grand Canyon, where she will find a boy with one shoe. Full of hopes that she might find Percy at last, Annabeth sets to the Grand Canyon, where she finds Jason, the boy with one shoe, Piper Mclean and Leo Valdez, three Greek demigods. (or were they all greek?)
Their protector, the satyr Gleeson Hedge was taken by wind spirits. A disappointed and EXTREMELY mad Annabeth escorts the three demigods to Camp Half-Blood, where the trio discover their godly parents and receive a quest to rescue Hera from danger. 
As the threesome undertake a journey to free Hera from the Wolf House, they must also rescue Piper's father from the Giant Enceladus in Mount Diablo and their satyr protector, Coach Hedge.
As their quest comes to a conclusion, Leo must then build the Argo 2 and travel to California with the chosen Greek demigods to find the Roman camp. Then, they must start the quest of the seven demigods to stop Gaea from rising, once and for all.

My comments

The Heroes of Olympus series is just as awesome as the Percy Jackson series, if not better. The original series is mainly focused on Percy, but this series has a variety of protagonists, and the author gives us the backstory of each character in order for us to understand and get to know them better. There is great character development for each of the characters and the story is fast-paced, thrilling and unbelievably magical, filled with humor and adventure equally. I really enjoyed reading about all the characters and the book is narrated from the perspective of different characters so that we can understand the story better. The plot is action-packed and fun-filled,  making it a very interesting read.

INTRODUCTION

Hello! First off, thank you so much for visiting my blog! I hope my entries help all the bookworms out there get their perfect dream book and start a whole new adventure in its pages. As a reader myself, I found it REALLY hard to find the ideal book and immerse myself in it for the next few months. But as soon as it was over, i had always struggled to find another perfect book. It is always a melancholic moment when a book ends, and we are left with the thoughts of the particular story for days before we find another book. Such books are rare to come by and will always be special to us. There are also some lesser known series, which are not as popular and well known as the Harry Potter and Percy Jackson series, but are just as amazing. But never fear! In this blog, i will write about the books i am particularly fond of, and all those stories i enjoyed a lot and hope you will too. So when you finish a good book series, and is left to stare at the wall, rethinking the plot and how great

  All you need to know about THE PANDAVA QUINTET (THE ARU SHAH SERIES) Author : Roshani Chokshi Aru Shah is a sassy and quirky twelve year old living in Atlanta, Georgia who also happens to be as salty as the Dead Sea. She is also shockingly good at lying, which was what lead to her unleashing a trapped supervillain and almost causing the end of time.  Yup, that went from 'normal' to ' definitely not normal' a little too fast. Let me back up a little. Aru's mom, Krithika Shah, owns a museum. The Museum of Ancient Indian Art and Culture. As a student of Augustus Day (AKA 'School for the Snobbiest'), to fit in, Aru often stretches the truth to impress her fellow classmates. But living in a museum is un-cool by Middle school standards, and definitely doesn't help Aru to become one with the aristocratic crowd. And it certainly doesn't help that her mother was always away on Museum work and was almost never home. Which was another contributing factor to
