Riarda Murseli I think she means nico it probably auto-corrected to say Nicole not nico
Jenna Book Haven lmao😂😂😂
SOLANGELO!!!!
Jenna Book Haven And Apollo was like FINE IDC
Did anyone else turn in to a sobbing mess when it mentioned Travis and Clarisse in college? My baby's are all grown up😭
Eimear Cullen I MISS THEM SO MUCH
They can be 12 again
Eimear Cullen same 😭😭

"Daddy upstairs" and "Olympus has its eyes on youuuuuu" killed me 😂🤣

JustSarah I know right
same
JustSarah same
YUP SAME
JustSarah same
my heart broke when I found out Meg was the demi god working for the beast but not because of the betrayal, because she's this young child who's being manipulated to believe that they're doing this because they love her.
Me too it broke me heart when I realized this
Yane M AHHHH MY SPOILER FREE EARS
Yane M she was manipulated :(
She think he is not evil :(
when nico and will came i started freaking out
IM STILL FREAKING OUT AA AIHAHFSHGHGJWGJJGBSHFT
"Me too I have a doctors note" same Nico

What Rick sees: Apollo is now a mortal and he needs to figure out how to live.
What everyone else sees: *SOLANGELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!1!1!!!!!!*
XxThat fandom girl xX why did I laugh. This has 9 likes
Solangelo: *Exists*

@@eebertdeebert wow its a religion inside of a religion
YUP
when they all lined up and punched leo in the face 😂😂😂
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS THAT WAS THE BEST THING EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
I actually thought that was really uncomfortable. What's funny about assault? Worst part of the book for me. First time I've ever felt like that in a Rick Riordan book tbh. Can't believe everyone else is all like ' oh my god, how funny is it seeing a favourite character of ours get abused! So funny!' I don't understand.
Sheechiibii Fox it's funny because when they heard he was still alive they all wanted to hit him for making them scared, plus this kid fought Giants and died before, he can take a few punches unlike all the soft wanna bes that read the books.
William Freeman Sorry but I don't think physical abuse justified by 'we were worried you were hurt so we're going to make sure you are now by beating you ourselves' is funny. Simply telling me what happened in the book like I didn't read it myself isn't going to suddenly make me understand how that's funny. Your comparison to giants is silly, giants aren't his friends who are supposed to care about him - they're villains who are trying to kill him. I hope your attitude doesn't mean the people you care about beat you. There's a reason why that behaviour is illegal.
Sheechiibii Fox you've never lightly pushed a friend for fun? Or just been in a friendly fight, not of anger but as a joke? That stuff isn't mentally scarring, it's just a way of having fun for people who aren't weak American crybabies. It's not mentally scarring just because you got a bruise, that's life. It heals.
Btw the way you say Piper still cracks me up
Pipper McLean
Miss Cult YES
"We don't know any Childs of demeters before"KATIE GARDNER GURLLL
We all thought it would be Will to pull the 'doctors note' thing but NO IT WAS NICO AND IT WAS AWESOME
yesssss
I feel like Rick had Apollo swear the oath to (not only to portray Apollo's vanity) but so Apollo didn't always have "an easy way out".
Yeah that's what I thought. Kinda like how in son of Neptune Percy had to give up the mark of Achilles so he wasn't invulnerable anymore
OH. My gosh. I picked this up last summer and set it down 100 pages in FOR NO REASON. I'm feeling inspired now, Christine. I need some Rick Riordan in my life.
OH MY GOSH! YAY PICK IT BACK UP! The second one is coming!!! =D
Anyone else have an entire shelf dedicated to Rick Riorden? I have all of his books and I cannot wait for the next Magnus Chase book. Magnus + Percy = 😍😍😍
Hayley Hodson unfortunately my books are split through two houses I live at, but I definitely would! I would also have one for Cassie Clare, and Sarah J Maas 😂😂
Jo Stewart I feel you! my shelves aren't big enough to house all of my Clare books, but so far I've also managed to get Rick's and Maas's book on their own shelves! I need a bigger bookcase. XD
Hayley Hodson OMG I thought I was the only one
YEEESS THE RICK RIORDAN BOOKS HAVE A SPECIAL SHELF NEXT TO MY BED
Totes girl! But I would never ship them as a couple. Percabeth and Fierrochase for life!
SOLANGELO IS THE CUTEST THING IN THE WORLD! I LOVE IT! I LOVE NICO’S DOCTOR’S NOTES!😍😂
my favorite little moments: percy's on the swim team! and he's gonna have a little sister! and his first words opening the door was "why" lmaoooo
i also CACKLED when leo was like "eh we beat gaea in like 40 seconds" like RICK YOU SAVAGE
What about Percy's unborn sibling? I was waiting for her to mention her
Samantha L me too
yeah. Percy's gonna be a GREAT big brother! :)
Yep 'GREAT' big brother
Samantha L Estelle
We love Estelle.
"pee-per"
*some things never change XD*
Mariana Maurício Christine says pip-er... instead of the correct pipe-r
Ikr!! That's always gets on my nerves
When she said that Calypso was mortal and liability I was just like, "you know who else is mortal and a liability? Apollo"
and you still haven't reviewed the kane chronicles ;-; give it a chance like you did with this one I know you'll like it
Celestino Vela
she has to read them because eventually the four parts of this world (Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Norse) are going to come together and make one big problem/solution!!! Rick's already combined Greek and Egyptian and Greek and Roman and Greek and Norse. My bet is this is going to come completely together either by Apollos ending series or another series or trilogy after Apollo. Either way Christine you have to read them!!!!
There's also Demigods and Magicians stories, those count as a "Percy Jackson related book[s]"
Oh my gosh I absolutely love those!!!
The Kane Chronicles audiobooks are really good too!
Celestino Vela I love Kane Chronicles!!!!
You're never going to pronounce Piper right are you? 😂😂😂
trials of apollo more like
*SOLANGELOOOOOO*
Mariana Mauricio yup!!
Mariana Mauricio solangelooooooooo

"Significant annoyance, in your case"
Jahdkajsjfie 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍I luv it
Christine, I just need to thank you. My day was going great , but, of course, it was turned to shit at the very end of the day. I got the notification for this and my day was instantly turned around again. Hearing you talk about these characters that I care about so much instantly got me feeling better and I love you so much for that. Once again, thank you.
BUT WHAT ABOUT SALLY
Bre Be she also didn't mention anything about Rachel
Wait. Apollo's lovers have been turned into plants all the time previously. Apollo's son, Will, fell in love with Nico, who had turned into a dandelion AND a stalk of corn. LiKe FaThEr LiKe SoN haha
*Hyacinthus flashbacks*
Oh gods. Nico is gonna die.
who actually leaves when she says "goodbye non spoiler-y people" ?
han piller not me I listen to like a minute of it end then I'm like wait I don't want these spoilers and then I leave😂
Gabby Mckayle hahahah, SAME
I did! then I read the book and came back :)
dude you HAVE to continue the series. you're gonna love it
The fact that Zeus re-named his son Lester. The *level* of pettiness 😂
SOLANGELO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"she's a communist!" that's my favourite line
Friend: what was the biggest shock in the book?
Me: THAT CONNOR AND TRAVIS ARENT TWINS!
Trials of Apollo is rlly fun. I just finished this book a couple of days ago and I absolutely love the actions, characters etc. I am now reading the dark prophecy and it’s even better than when I first expected it to be ;)
I love how Nicos excuse no matter what the problem is “I have a doctors note” Because his doctor is his boyfriend
*WHAT ABOUT PERCY'S UNBORN SIBLING!?!?!?!?!!?!*
One of my favorite parts of the book is when Leo returned, and there was a line of campers organized by nico punching him in the arm because he made them think he was dead
Have you heard the song from the new Broadway musical adaptation of The Lightning Thief? It's called Good Kid and I'm curious to hear your thoughts on it.
frecklesohmy92 it's so good!!!
I don't know if I'm totally sold on the whole idea of the musical yet but I must admit the song is catchy haha. So happy to hear you love it!
frecklesohmy92-
I've heard it but I'm still at the point where I don't want anyone touching the Percy Jackson universe except Rick. I'm also not too happy about the fact that this series is only good enough for a musical, not a TV show or decent movies.
Rachel- the- Fangirl I totally feel you dude. A musical never would have been my first choice for the PJO material but as a fan of musicals I do have a lot of confidence in the medium's storytelling.
frecklesohmy92 (not trying to be mean) The musical is not called Good Kid. Good Kid is the only song that they have released. The actual musical is the Lightning Thief (again not trying to be mean just saying ; )
I actually thought you already read it. Oh whale. IT'S THE BEST! I LOVE APOLLO. AND SOLANGELO
"Hes like the Percy Jackson equivalent of GROOT! *growling* peachesssss"
I came as soon as I heard!
thatsimple_idk ALL THE WAY FROM LONDON? DAMN
I'm leaving, I'm leaving
thatsimple_idk All the way from RUclips DAMN!
Sorry I will be leaving too...
Awesome.yayfanfic Yay! Don't you mean All the way from London dam
The best thing about this book: solangelo
I'm just here for solangelo. SOLANGELOSOLANGELOSOLANGELO
_We can make a religion out of this._
Finished it in time for the next one! It's sooo good isn't it?! My favorite part is the arrow. He's so funny!
So you still haven't read the Kane Chronicles yet?
My favorite part was when the book tied back to the sea of monsters raising the question "who funded the invasion?"
Apollo called Meg a “Ragamuffin dumpster queen”. That line automatically puts him in my top 3 favorite Rick Riordan characters with Percy & Leo. And Peaches is amazing.
Is it just me, or do I get overly excited when I finish a book she has a booktalk on so I can watch her?
Are we not going to talk about the BRILLIANT AMAZING FUNNY haiku chapter titles??
I noticed that your copy of the DUFF was upside down. Once I noticed I couldn't stop!
Emma D I can't help but state it now ugh
I’m kind of disappointed she didn’t read the rest of trials of Apollo because a lot of stuff that wasn’t wrapped up in BoO that she was upset about is featured in ToA. Love her reviews though❤️
I screamed when Percy commented Peaches saying Peaches all the time by saying "He's Grooting." My biggest fictional boyfriend referencing Guardians of The Galaxy just made me so happy.
Give Kane Chronicles a shot. Please...?
Did you just- "Olympus has it's eyes on you." Were you referencing the Broadway production 'Hamilton: An American Musical' or is my obsession just overwhelming every thought I have?
You should do book talks for the other trials of Apollo books
Are you going to finish the other books?
Are you going to review the other books in this series?? That would be awesome
I always wonder who throws the books to you so you catch them? I
The book cover is really nice.
holistic79 I think she throws them up in the air
By the end of this book i had an unchecked hatred for meg for awhile. And I think EVERYONE was annoyed with Apollo in the beginning. Loved Nico and Will's parts in this book. Doctors Orders. Right?!? But that end though. (ps Christine Pan died in the labrynth remember)
Meg is a victim of domestic abuse and parental manipulation, who has a variety of good points and bad points and overall actually acts like a 12-year-old. She's a complex character from just the first book, so I really like her and the reveal of her spying which I felt was really well done.
Apollo is also a very well written character with lots of flaws, and I just appreciate the amount of complexity his character held and his constant development. So no, I loved Meg, and I loved Apollo since it took just one book for them to be as complex and well-rounded as Percy and Annabeth did in 4-5 books
I don’t know if you’re still reading Trials of Apollo, but I feel like your book review of Burning Maze would be glorious
I'm crying. Literally crying. Just because I love Rick's books so much (and also all the jokes you've reminded me about since I read it as soon as it was out)
Don’t worry Jason is... taken care of in book 3
The Cringey Sunglasses OoF
*Caligula flashbacks*
"Jason would get knocked out by the giant robot" TRUE THOUGH
please read and do a book talk about The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan
IM SO PROUD OF YOU CHRISTINE
I loved the part when Percy mentioned Annabeth being in Boston where the Magnus Chase books were going on.
BOOTALK IS BACK!! I missed your booktalks soooo much! Love you Christine!!!
The amount of passion and dedication she has to these book is inhuman.
I just had a huge fight with my parents and I immediately came to your channel and started marathoning your videos. You're literally my comfort show. 😂❤
This is perfect!!!!! I just finished the book!!!! I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One thing I really liked bout the book was the more... in-depth look we had at the CHB kids, the ones in the background. They were given more personality in this book, which was really enjoyable. I also loved how Apollo interacted with his children.
Read. The. Burning. Maze. Right. Now.
Reneka Sampson ikr
SOLANGELO FOR LIFEEEE
*I'M SO HAPPY YOU FINALLY READ IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH*
READ THE CANE CHRONICLES SO U CAN READ THE CROSSOVER MINISERIES WITH THE CANES AND PERCY JACKSON
Shuzzlin' reader OH MY GOD I LOVE THOSE
Shuzzlin' reader SO GOOD!!! I love Percy's and Carter's bantering and the fact that the girls play off of each other. XD
WereReader ss I loved the parts when Sadie was messing with stuff or whatever and Percy stared at her and thought "whoa it's like starting at my future daughter "
Short and Nerdy Yes!!! And Percy wonders what the heck he's gotten himself into! XD
IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS BOOKTALK
OMG!!! I was looking for this booktalk today!! I'm so EXCITEDDDDD!
YES YES YES YES!! I've been waiting for this for FOREVER!
I guessed Demeter almost straight away but I want Grover to come back he is one of the only original Percy Jackson character that's not been back
im so here for your eyeshadow tho 👌 😂
Christine, have you read the other two books in the series???
Omg this was such good timing I just re read it and I went to go see if you'd done a book talk and there wasn't one but now here it is! It just made my day
Oh my god I've waited a year for this booktalk, Trials of Apollo was so immensely good and it took me back to my days at camp half blood. APOLLO IS MY FAVORITE.
It's been 84 years, I have been waiting forever for this review I don't even remeber anything anymore, must read again for the next book.
My favorite part was always when Apollo and mega go find Percy and when Apollo gets the or Percy is just like "crap what did you do now?"
I totally relate, like, A LOT when she said that she compares every character with percy because I do the same and actually makes me ANGRYYYY that I can't stop and I can't really enjoy each character because my brain is like: Nah, Percy is better
i love percy so much, it didnt satisfy my percy needs. but i loved this book smmm
I was so sad when I finished Heroes of Olympus.
I am so stoked to see the Percy Jackson series continue, although, it took me a while to get accustom to the fact that this is all from Apollo's POV!
Later, in this first book, I even grew to like his cocky godly attitude.
I finished this book 3 days ago and I honestly feel so proud because I finished it before you because you have read like every book ever. Also I'm sure we started reading about the same time because I had the problem with there being less Percy too but what we got of him in this book I absolutely loved
Literally was sitting on my sofa and was like its Christine Tuesday where's the video and it came out and IT WAS ONE KF MY FAV BOOKS HWJXJSJXJ your my fav youtuber 😊
This is the first book I read before Christine and was able to watch it immediately and not read it first then watch it. *Mission success*
"He's a narcissistic, abusive... and I can't wait to see him die."
LOL Christine, so murderous :'D
Loved your review! I'm so happy you read it. I was dying to know your thoughts. I agree with you completely. You always manage to say things so clearly all the while making me laugh :)
When I first saw that Meg had a crush on Percy I was just like: NO you will never have Percy you naïve child!😂 - I hated her at first and at the end!😂
I've been waiting for this video for so long I'm so happy ❤️❤️
O.O Now I wanna reread this book
I love Percy but I love Apollo's POV too. He's so funny. I don't know if Rick will have Percy be a huge part only cause I mean Percy's done a lot to help out
Kristine !!! You finally read it !!! I am so proud of you !!
is the second book (the dark prophecy) already going to intersect with magnus chase? bc i haven't read mc yet😬
Charlie Theis I need to reread but I don't think it will majorly. Things may be mentioned but I don't think there'll be massive cross overs.
FINALLY! IT'S BEEN 82 YEARS! THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Apollo grew so much during this story and I can't even wait the next books! Although at first he reminded me of Gilderoy Lockhart
Read THe Dark Prophecy it's out already! SOO GOOD! Kalypso is hilarious
