Summary: Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus's master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect.Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus's stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.
What I thought: I really enjoyed this book. I have to say that YA books are probable my favorite books to read though. I loved following Percy and his friends as they try to figure out what to do next once they are on their own and no longer have anyone to point them in the right direction. Rick Riordan really did a good job of showing what it is like being a new kid. The feeling of being alone. I really can't think of anything I didn't like about this book.
