hi guys, welcome back to my blog! everyone is talking about percy jackson right now because of the news about the disney+ series! + may have even recently created a spoiler-free book tag based on characters from the pjo/hoo series! I’m also currently in the middle of rereading rick riordan’s mythological series with my friend fate! me
Anyway, because of the exciting news about the show, I’ve seen a lot of people go back to riordan’s verse and ask how to read all the books. So, I thought since I’ve read all but the last two books in the trials of apollo series, why not help everyone out and let them know how they can dive into the riordan series without getting confused?
