Mom, mermaid, business owner. I once married the riddler when I was going through my batman phase, still going through it, I'm starting to worry I won't outgrow it.
I'm glad the "who's your daddy" phase of the book didn't last long. I'm wondering when they'll address his grief over losing his mother. I know he has convinced himself he can somehow go get her from the afterlife but...not even one crying sesh?

My daughter is reading the Percy Jackson books to me right now. I'm quite enjoying it.
I'm doing updates on my page of my reactions if that sounds interesting to you.

Hmmmm, that boost of energy he got from water was... mighty telling I think. Between that, the toilets, the beach, and the fountain, I think I know. I mean, I was pretty sure from the whole lost at sea thing but... who knows it might all be some trick. 🤷♀️ #percyjackson #reading #storytime #books #sus

Okay, taking a bathroom break so... we've come to the cabins which are clearly segregated by each of the various gods. Although one of them is far more empty than I would expect knowing Greek god stories as I do. Suspiciously empty.

A good author can make you experience strong emotions for example:
WTF mate? Violence is not normally my first reaction but I kinda wanna slap him in the mouth. Too soon bro, WAAAY too soon.

Yeah, I don't think the kids notice how much it means to me to hear from them that they think so lovingly of me.
I said to my eldest this morning "yeah, most kids don't think their parents are great" and he replied "not me". I think I might have been physically glowing after that.

I knew that teacher was up to something. Didn't expect him to be the centaur for disease control, a fun turn.

Aww, Percy's relationship with his mom is so cute. I never had a close relationship with my mom but my daughter said "when I read this book the first time I wanted to share it with you because the mom made me think so much of you". We shared the now open tissue box.

Also my daughter pronounces "Bobofit" as "Boba Fett" and I accept no other way.
What names of characters have you pronounced differently than others?

Not sure how I feel about the gaslighting about Mrs. Dodds. I mean, clearly there's a reason, but doesn't Percy have enough problems without adding "nah, you probably vividly hallucinated a whole person" to the list?

My daughter has expressed that I might soon need tissues, so I got some extra soft ones. I'm so curious about what's about to happen!

I LOVED the books so much. I'm actually worried to watch the movie because of how different it might be. Still gonna watch it though 😆.

Alternately, Biden signs roe into law. Biden passes a law that no convicted persons can hold the office of the presidency. Then he resigns in the last few days making Kamala 47 and ruining all of the merch. Donald has a meltdown, Vance is suddenly president and the very delicate support fractures.

Starting now, each day, those of us who are genuinely interested in the best future come together. In small groups, in libraries, in public parks, at city hall or the mall. We make an effort every day in whatever way we can to make the world safer around us. As the world changes, we hold on to love.

Well, so far, Percy is VERY relatable. I, too, often caused havoc on school trips. Although I never physically annihilated a teacher, I do appreciate that the pen is mightier as a sword. #booksky #story #reading #storytime
