The Mark of Athena was very well done and I enjoyed it and the ending made me speechless! Percy and Annabeth are in Tartarus on the other side of the Doors of Death? OH MY GODS! And like everyone else, I felt completely bad for Reyna! She sacrificed so much for honor and all that, only to be dissed by Jason, and loose trust in the Greeks, though I think Annabeth did a great job of convicing her that she will make things right.

Loved Annabeth's POV! Gave a deeper insight into her character and made me love her even more! And Percy and Annabeth gave me happy moments!

Octavia is such a B!%C+! I hope when they do arrive at Camp Half-Blood Clarisse shows him a thing or two about what war really is about!

Leo, Hazel, and Frank triangle was awesome! I so Team Lazel now! But I still think Leo and Reyna should get together, I'm Team Leyna as well. But I also think Jason and Piper just need to break up. Piper needs to do the Rite of Passage, break his heart, so he can be with Reyna. Period! Piper KNOWS she doesn't deserve him and if Reyna was bewitched by Aphrodite to fall for Jason, Piper should definitely do something to correct it.

Otherwise, I can't wait for the House of Hades! I definitely think we will see the battle between Camp Jupiter and Camp Half-Blood in this book before the seven actually make it to the "ancient lands." It was made very clear that for Gaea to rise, she would need to spill the blood of two of the seven, a boy and girl and I definitely could see that happening at the end of book 4.
