Since I finished The Book Theif I have started The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan. I already know what you are thinking, Oh thats such a kids book, Why don't you go back to middle school, and to be honest you are 100% right. It is a book written for kids most likely 4 reading levels below me and it has some pretty crappy lines in it. So I have to ask myself, why am  I reading this childrens book. So I have two anwsers that I have worked up for that question:
 1. They are extremely good storyline, the characters are a bit flat and the surprise unpredictable twists are completely predictable but honest to go it has a great storyline.
 2. I started with his books when I was in about 6th grade and I am definitely not stopping now.
          So yes there is no reason for me to read this but I truly enjoy Rick's gripping storyline and amazing adventours. He finds a way to make the most imbecilic ideas completely plausible and believable. I feel that if he just works on his character developement and maybe matures up a little bit, he could be a greaat young adult writer (even though he technically is I am sorry but there is a difference between 6th grade young adult and high school young adult).
         So far the book has been a little bit of a disapointment, cruddy lines and no character developement at all but most likely by the next time I am writing this blog I will have finished this book and I can tell you all about it but until then Happy reading.
