Annabeth was always a little annoying to me because she always had something to say. But she became really annoying in the MoA chapter where she was reunited with Percy. She annoyed me for the follwoing reasons:

A. When she saw how more handsome, muscular and blah blah Percy was, it was like the world stopped and she forgot the two Romans who were acting like friends to Percy.

B. I understand that she wanted to see Percy again, but that? That? She kept saying she wanted to kiss him so bad, kidnap him, she desfribed her kiss. I mean, I wanted to shout to her "Hold you hormones girl! You don't want to kiss-kill Percy!".

C. And when she finally kissed/hugged/reunited with him, she judo-flipped him. Seriously? I understood the purpose of the judo-flip but still....

This chapter was stereotypical, uncivillized and frightening. I know RR tried not to make it clich with Annabeth crying and stuff but this? THIS? I had always thought that although annoying Annabeth was a serious person, not obbessed with her boyfriend and I liked the fact that she was never showing to Percy that she was 'easy' but that chapter cancelled everything. It made Annabeth look like another crazy-with-herboyfriend female protagonists, like we don't have enough in litreture these days.....
