    Attention: All readers. If you haven't read Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Sea of  Monsters, by Rick Riordan what are you doing? Go read it! If you've already read it, good for  you. Now read it again. This book is more than you regular fantasy novel. Sure, it had monsters,  a Titan rising from the dead, and magical vitamins. But this book separated itself from other  fantasy novels. Most of the fantasy novels I read don't really tie down to reality. This is much  different.The Percy Jackson books are centered around a fantastical thought, however they all  have elements of realistic fiction. It's like combining your favorite realistic fiction novel, with a  bunch of Greek gods. I would give this book a 10/10. It was so amazing. My favorite part about  it was Percy’s relationships with all the villains. His attitude and jokes towards Luke really just  made me laugh. The book is basically about Percy, a middle schooler who happens to be a  demigod. After an accident in school, he flees to camp half blood. But they are under new  management, which causes things to be difficult for him. Percy and Annabeth evacuate, on a  quest to find Grover, and to get the Golden Fleece to heal Thalia's tree. You will enjoy this book  if you have read Harry Potter, or have a thirst for comedy and fantasy. However, I don't  recommend watching the movie. I felt the movie wasn't up to par with the book. Percy looked 18  not 13, and as did Annabeth.

    jcfertwig's book review was featured in Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters.
    I really loved this book. It flawlessly continued from the first book, leaving no hiccups for the reader to stumble apon. Both of the books started with Percy at a new school, and things are about to go horribly wrong. I found it creative how Riordan managed to intertwine Tyson's and Percy's lives. Also, I found it very interesting how Percy kept comparing himself to Luke. It gave the story a new twist. But, I didn't really like how quickly some of the battles passed. The first battle, at Percy's school, seemed to happen to rapidly and disorderly for me. Other than that, I don't really have any other compaints.

    1. Sweden is trying to get rid of cash. They think it will be quicker, easier, and safer. 2. Bus tickets and Cellphone stores no longer accept cash. 3. Denmark, Finland, and Israel are trying to go cashless. Critical thinking: An advantage of cash is that no one can steal your cash from your pocket. Also you cannot misplace it. A disadvantage of no cash is how will kids pay for things? Most kids do not have credit cards, so how would they buy anything?
