=Matthew G's 9th Grade Book Review=

Have you ever read a book so good, you were glued to the pages and couldn't put it down. Well for me that book was "The Lighting Thief" by Rick Riordian. My Opinion is that the book was magnificent and written pretty well. Usually most books I read, I get bored of and put it down but with this book it’s a whole other story. It was really interesting and kept me wondering what would happen. This book was about a troubled boy named Percy Jackson who has been kicked out of boarding school many times and finds out that he is the son of Poseidon the great Greek God of the Sea. He has been sent on a mission to get back Zeus's master lightning bolt and clear his name. And stop the fighting between Zeus and his dad. On his quest he faced many Greek mythology monsters and gods but is companied by friends on this journey. The characters were very interesting and fun to read about. The author did a good job on writing the characters because they didn’t get predictable or boring. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes Greek mythology or even an amazing book. When you read a book what do you look for? Action? Laughter? Adventure? Sadness? Betrayal? In this book it has everything in it. Overall I really liked this book and pretty sure who ever reads it will like it too.
