if you haven’t read PJO yet, literally what are you doing. Read this for the first time when I was 11 and I still go back to it from time to time. Love how it blends Greek mythology in an urban setting

I finished this book in two nights. Immersed me from the first page. It’s heart wrenching and romantic and the prose is so beautiful. I’d recommend this to anyone 13+. It lowkey changed my life

The way it’s written and structured is super unique! I remember reading this at 14 and getting really immersed. It’s sad but it’s also feel good

It’s a romance but it’s also a family drama. The female mc’s brother is in jail on account of murder…the murder of the brother of the guy she likes 😭 just give it a read
