I had never heard of the Percy Jackson series until I read this comment (almost a month ago.. hello delayed replying :P) but I looked it up and thought it sounded cool since I love YA and Greek myths. Then I was bored in an airport a couple weeks ago and picked up the first one. I'm definitely enjoying it! It has some Harry Potterish elements, I guess (not that I'm saying HP is super original or that this book steals from it, but someone who enjoys one would probably enjoy both), but it has more of a sense of humor. It's fun! Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the recommendation, even though it was meant for vovat, and I would also now recommend them to him. :)
