And Ghost, she never said she didn't like the books, only that she didn't like how some of the characters/events are portrayed. I mean lets face it, this series isn't perfect and no author is above criticism from their fans, no matter how successful they are overall. I mean pretty much everyone disliked that deleted scene from The Lightning Thief Rick posted, but it isn't like anyone reading that scene would say "Rick wrote it, so it must be good."

I mean there are some characters that a lot of people wish were written differently. While I don't think Piper is a bad character, there are a lot of people that don't like her. Will that stop them from reading the series? Probably not, as there are other things in the series for them to enjoy. Everyone has an opinion, whether it be good or bad it doesn't matter
