So, there was this friend of mine who was a fan of these books. He had read the Percy Jackson and the Olympians pentalogy, and he wanted every one in our bro-gang to read them. I didn't actually like the books. Of course, I judged them by their cover. But when I volunteered to read the first book alone, I had made the wisest decision of my life. I loved it so much that I read every single book in the Riordanverse in half a year or so. And I was so lucky to have started reading them in December 2017, because, right when I completed The Ship Of The Dead in April 2018, Aru Shah and the End Of Time and The Burning Maze were released in a week, only for me to buy them in a few days and read them. I was and am so obsessed with the Riordanverse that I had actually completed reading them in months! Months! I can't help but saying this again and again.

Reading Uncle Rick's books developed my interest in reading a variety of books present in a variety of genres. I gained more knowledge and became more mature. I also brought in a few more fanboys! I could relate people in my surroundings with fictional characters and deal with them in the right way. My interest in reading more and more books increased to a great level. My imagination and thinking skills had developed. My concentration in a variety of things - in which I have a lot of passion and interest - had improved. Books are the best source to enrich your mind. They are the best source to make you a better human being.
