Percy Jackson and the Olympians ~ Window or Mirror?

I just finished reading House of Hades, Book 4 in the Heroes of Olympus series. It is by Rick Riordan (as are most good books) and takes place after the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. It is a fantasy book about Greek mythology. 

For me, this book was a window.

“What is a window?”,you may ask. Allow me to explain.

A mirror is a book where you can relate to one of the characters. A window takes you into their world, where you don’t have anything in common with anyone. Many books are both a window and a mirror.

As I said before, House of Hades is a window for me, and let me explain why! If you have read the book, you know what I’m talking about, but I’ve never been to Tartarus (how odd…) . Most of the people are older than me and I’m 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% sure that I am not a demigod. However, there is always that 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance that I may be a demigod…

Weird

Life, I mean. Not you.

I’m fairly sure that you are a perfectly weird person, just like me!!!! I wouldn’t be writing this sentence if I wasn’t at least 50% weird, in fact.

Before I go off on an infinitely long tangent, let’s get back on track.

I chose this book because I liked Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I hope you enjoy this book.

Read Maybe Daily News!

HONK!!! – famous quote from Gooseman, Harbinger of Honks.
Listen up!(oh wait, you can’t; Gooseman shattered your eardrums)
Let me rephrase that: look up!
Wait, that sounds like you are looking away from your screen.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM (me using my obviously superior brain power)

Okay, moving on:

What is Gooseman?, you may be thinking (yes, I did just read your mind). If this is what you are thinking, YOU ARE SINCERELY MISINFORMED!!!!!
I’m sorry, but whatever newspaper or online news you read is making stuff up!
