Not going to lie, I didn’t like this book, it was even worse than the first one.  I feel like the plot could be good, the adventure was nice but I hated the characters and the authors take on the Greek gods and goddesses.  Again the main character is insufferable.  The lines of dialogue are extremely childish and overall I hated the writing style of this.  Like the line: “Lots of chocolate. And some male companionship, for making out in the dark and stuff. If only we knew any boys.” ( - Chapter four, pages 39 and 40) like why?  This was so random with everything that was going on at the time and making out with boys was what you were thinking about… not to mention the wording “male companionship” just sounds disgusting.
