Percy's nightmare in the chalice of the gods with all the gods pregnant was seriously the most unhinged thing Rick has ever written. i still can't believe i read that shit in an actual book of his and not just a fanfic. it feels unreal. did that actually happen or did i just make it up? i'm really not sure

chalice of the gods spoilers
I love that the chapter titles are back. I missed them, I missed Percy's narration - Apollo and Magnus sometimes had similar vibes, but they didn't quite have Percy's brand of sarcasm.
Tumblr media
I haven't read the original series in a while, but I'm always glad to be reminded that even though these characters are written accessibly, for a younger audience, there is still a decent amount of nuance. Percy doesn't see Poseidon as a perfect father figure, there's a layer of bitterness when he talks about him 'remodelling mansions' instead of checking in on his son. I've missed the original trio, it's wonderful that so much of this is set in a cosy, homely setting and we get snapshots of the demigods having an ordinary life, of Annabeth bonding with Paul Blofis over Shakespeare, of Sally announcing her pregnancy, of the four joking over what to put in Percy's college recommendation letter.
Tumblr media
I have a gut feeling that the rest of this series may revolve around Percy realising he doesn't have to centre his life and career choices around following Annabeth. Though it's sweet, the comments about him following her to college, but it's clear that this is not his decision, his sole and only reason for wanting to get into New Rome University, and collecting these recommendation letters, and doing this quest, is because that is Annabeth's plan, and he's not sure what he'd do otherwise. I feel like otherwise, this trilogy(?) would end up as a rather surface-level, generic quest-format series, with no depth or addition to these character's stories. Percy grows throughout the Riordanverse, sure, but it would be wonderful (robbing a quote) to see him grow in the sphere of the mundane and ultimately generically human. I want to make a little comic of Percy giving Grover a copy of the Giving Tree. Also any scene with Ganymede, I loved the himbo juice one. The empathy and care that Percy had for Ganymede was the closest I came to getting emotional while reading.

This description of childhood anxiety/panic is incredible:

Just the preview of the chalice of the gods is so much more genuine and in character and well written and well plotted than any part of the sun and the star ever was.
Is chalice of the gods the best PJO book? Absolutely not. But it looks like it’s gonna to be a valid entry to the series at least

Is it just me or does Percy fighting/ hugging Gary and having those flashes of his future with Annabeth and Grover, remind anyone else of the ending of Barbie??

Preface: I am an 18+ blog, so minors don’t interact and keep scrolling
I know I was gonna do notes for the new Percy Jackson book, but in true Percy Jackson ADHD fashion, I stopped like a third of the way in bc it started feeling like a chore. And now I’m making this post days after finishing it 🤷🏻
But congratulations Rick Riordan on once again attracting his target reader audience
It was really good tho. If I wasn’t so bone tired lately, I would’ve finished it two days, but it took me like four lol. So if you have problems focusing on reading for long periods of time, this book is phenomenal (granted, I read oodles of college level books last year for my degree so middle grade is like a walk in the park but…my point still stands). This book is lower stakes than the original series, but if you love Percy as much as I do, this is great 😅😅 GIVE THAT BOY A BREAK
I’ll post a few spoilers below if you’re curious and nosey on what happens but don’t want to read the book. I encourage you to look up the general synopsis tho bc I’m not gonna write about that. This is gonna be my highlights.
Poseidon is a crocs and socks guy and I couldn’t be more happy. This is my biggest highlight. I’m not joking. Like of course he is. He’s also building an infinity pool in his underwater summer getaway which is just great. He’s trying to build a relationship ship with Percy so that’s great. Percy seems to be chill with that but he knows Poseidon’s gotta work for it.
Zeus being the reason why Percy’s gotta get 3 letters of recommendation. And why his first and only kite as a kid was struck down 😭😭😭
The existence of the restaurant Himbo Juice in this book surely means that Rick is aware of the femboy Hooters meme. Like I feel it in my nuggets
Percy and Annabeth sure are Percabeth-ing in this book and it gives me life. Like I can’t pinpoint an exact moment bc it’s everywhere.
I looooooove how Ganymede is painted as a victim of grooming in this book. Bc of course. And I looooove how Iris sympathizes with him bc she understands his situation and knows how he got an even worse deal than she did in his position. It’s also interesting how Riordan hops around this within the confines of middle grade fiction.
Also Ganymede feeling obligated to fill and top off everyone’s cups (demigod or not) was a nice touch
Iris has a demigod child that only loves monochrome and it’s killing her. Amazing
Sally Jackson is living her best life with Paul and is now a published author. AND SHE’S PREGNANT 😆😆😆😆😆😆 AND PERCY IS EXCITED TO BE A BIG BROTHER 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 oh I love it. Honestly, I could have a book just on that with him doing big brother babysitting.
Hebe has a Chuck E Cheese establishment called Hebe Jeebies where people can become younger as they play games and eat cardboard pizza. And she has killer chickens that will eat your flesh and conduct chicken fights. ALSO THE MAIN CUSTOMERS BEING BOOMERS BC THEY CANT GROW UP IS HILARIOUS. Burn.
When the trio was turned 8 temporarily, Percy was so anxious bc childhood trauma obvi. But Percy going “I don’t want to go through growing up again. I won’t. I’m so scared,” was owie.
In fact, Percy being so anxious he pressure washed (pressure bombed?) a cave is relatable. If every time I had a panic attack I became a pressure washer, my neighborhood street would be so clean.
The god of old age (whose name escapes me) being the one who stole the chalice made a lot of sense. AND PERCY EMBRACED HIM INSTEAD OF FIGHTING HIM BC HE WILL BE FIGHTING OLD AGE HIS WHOLE LIFE AND HE WANTS TO GROW OLD😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I was tearing up. I think this was really targeted toward the young adult/approaching middle age audience. Damn you Riordan
Percy broke into Zeus’ chamber in Olympus to return the chalice and the only god to notice him was Athena!!!!!! They literally went “👁️👄👁️ 👀” She’s more tolerant of Percy being Athena’s boyfriend now!!! It’s gettin serious
Hmmmmmmmm
Tumblr media
That’s all I have to say about that
