This is my first blog, and I have a VERY deep interest in reading books, so I thought I would start a book review blog.
The first book (series, if you'd like to call it that) I'm going to talk about is the Percy Jackson series, written by Rick Riordan.
This series contains many books, some as a sub-series as well, which I will discuss about later.
There are some other interesting people in the book also, and only if you read the book can you understand them.
I think that this book will be a good start for teens who are starting to take an interest in reading books, as it fits in perfectly in the teenager world, and people can understand how Percy feels in the book. On the whole, the entire Percy Jackson books series is well-known and interesting by people of almost all ages. So, I think it's a great start for people who want a nice pastime when they're alone.
So, that's it for this post. In the next one (when I have the time to do it, that is) I will discuss about the second and third books ("Percy Jackson and The Sea of Monsters" and "Percy Jackson and The Titan's Curse" respectively). Thanks for viewing this post guys! See you later!

→ 1st book/Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief - The entire Percy Jackson series deals with the interaction between the modern world and the Greek/Roman gods. As many are aware of, the Greek empire in the past was conquered by the later-emerging Romans. Thus, the Greek gods' personality was changed by the Romans as more war-like, disciplined and strict. The Romans, for these characteristics, were regarded as one of the most powerful empires of the world.
So, coming to the story, Percy Jackson, the protagonist, leads a normal life, but cannot read normally English like us due to him being dyslexic. He later finds out that his father is ancient Greek god, Poseidon - the god of oceans, earthquakes, storms, and horses. But his mother is a mortal - a normal human. Thus, he is known as a "demigod". Due to this, Percy gets targeted by many ancient 'monsters' which will make you enjoy the book if you're into action and god-like power.
