Hunters of Artemis (cabin #8) discussion

Hey!
Here you can talk about books you loved, books you hated, ask a recommendation or make a recommendation!
Basically, you can talk about anything you want as long as it's related to books!

In the Heroes of Olympus series, I really liked the Mark of Athena and the House of Hades! They are my top 2!

In the original pjo books i really liked The Titans Curse

Yeah, it's pretty good too!

But i might just be bias because Thalia's my favourite character haha

;)

At school ( a lifetime ago) I was bombarded with Latin and ancient Greek, read most of the saga's (admittedly in translation) and formed my own view of those "heroes", particularly those in the Iliad.

One of the worst interpretations I have ever encountered is the Xena series, even though I think Lucy lawless is really very sexy. ;)

Anyway, I am a great fan of Penthesilea and her Amazons.

I really enjoyed reading We Goddesses: Athena, Aphrodite, Hera I felt it retold the myths very well from their point of views.
And I am hoping I can find My Mothers' Daughter which s told through the point of views of Artemis, Leto, Persephone, and Demeter and it is on my shelf somewhere.

In terms of Norse mythology, I am rereading two Norse mythology books. One of them is written by Neil Gaiman and I think it is one of my favorite retellings of the myths.

Awesome. And I just reread a really funny children's chapter book recently called, Shadow Goblins . I don't know exactly why I'm mentioning it exactly, but it was really fun to read. :D

Oooh! How is it?

It's really good so far. Though I am reading it really really slowing because I'm annotating it.

I have marked it as "to-read" and have read the first few pages of the opening.
