The Lightning Thief, by Rick Riordan - Speaking of mythology, this is the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, which was recommended to me by [info]rockinlibrarian.
I've been reading this one too. I'm almost done with it so I picked up the second book today. (I'm glad kids' books are so comparatively cheap! 7 bucks for a paperback feels much better than 14.) The Books Inc by my house where I got it is actually having Rick Riordan there tomorrow morning.. I found this out because I searched all throughout the teen section for these books, couldn't find any, gave up and started to walk away when I noticed a huge stack of all of them next to that section, with a big announcement. :P It'd probably be interesting to see him talk but you have to get tickets ahead of time and there will surely be lots of people, so I probably won't go.
