(Finally, I way to tell my EPIC story!) Haha.

Anyway, I got into Percy Jackson just last summer, which I guess after Mark of Athena came out. That was NOT how I was introduced, though. A little bit before that, my older sister got The Lost Hero from her school, so I read the back and was like "Hey, this seems interesting." A little bit after that, I read The Lost Hero online. It wasn't my favorite, but I was pretty hooked. I finished it in... a crap-ton of hours. (A day.) Anyway, The Sea of Monsters movie had came out long ago, but I hadn't seen the Lightning Thief movie yet, so you guessed it, I saw it online. After that, I went to the library with my sister and my dad and they had the entire series (minus TLT), but I figured that if I had seen the movie, I didn't need to read the 1st one. (I did, however, read TLT.) It didn't take me long to read Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and I remember reading a lot at night. After that, I decided to visit The Heroes of Olympus series again. HOWEVER, my library didn't have The Son of Neptune (which I read online and loved :P), but they did have The Mark of Athena and House of Hades. You can call me a pirate because I read books online, but the day that BoO came out, I found it online and read it in a crap-ton of hours, just like I did with TLH. I have reread every book in both series, including BoO, which I reread about two months ago. As you have said, the series got me into reading. Percy Jackson has to be my second favorite series because...well...*COUGH*Harry Potter*COUGH*

It will still be dear to me, and I'm happy I read it, because it introduced me to Rick Riordan's amazing other series, the Kane Chronicles, my 4th favorite series after the Hunger Games trilogy. I'm reading a lot more and I recently just got into YA.

Soo, that's my story.
