A Series in Summation - Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan

Let's talk about one of the series I read in November- Percy Jackson. No, I hadn't read this before hand and a few of my friends kept telling me how great these books were, so I picked them up. Now, since I already discuss all of the individual books in my monthly wrap up that's coming, and I am definitely going to be discussing this series on the blog because I do love it, we aren't going to have a book by book breakdown on this post. Stay tuned until the end of the month for that info. For now, let's talk about the series as a whole.

Friday Reads November 15, 2013

Welcome to another Friday Reads here at Paper Worlds. Currently, I'm still reading the Percy Jackson series, but I will definitely be finishing up this weekend. I'm about 50 pages from the end of book 4, The Battle of the Labyrinth. I'm enjoying it but this book has definitely taken me longer than I thought it would to get through, simply because it was a busy week. So, this weekend I'm going to be finishing up Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. I've really been enjoying the series and I'm sad to see it end, but I have the Heroes of Olympus series to marathon sometime in 2014. Back to this weekend, I have a novella I'm going to read and review after I finish The Last Olympian, and then I'm going to start the Precious Stone trilogy by Kerstin Gier, starting by rereading the first book, Ruby Red. 
So there's a bit of a book filled weekend. I'm definitely excited for it. Happy reading!

From a paper world,

Friday Reads - November 8, 2013




Alright, let's start Paper Worlds and Swirls of Ink's very first Friday Reads! This began as a twitter trend, transported into the Booktube-sphere, and now we are bringing it to the blogs. This Friday, I am still immersed in the Percy Jackson series. The Titan's Curse is the third book in the Percy Jackson series.  I had thought I would be finished reading through the series by now, but I'm definitely enjoying the books. Over the weekend I'll definitely be finishing up the series and starting on A Song of Ice and Fire this weekend. 
I've got a full review of the Percy Jackson series being written, probably as a Series in Summation piece (and stay tuned for a few of those coming out this month!) and I've been writing my segments for the Wrap Up as I finish the book so the review is fresh and can have more detailed thoughts. To see what I'm hoping to read throughout the month of November, check out the November TBR.  In the meantime, happy reading over the weekend, good luck to all of the Nanowrimo participants, and hope you're enjoying your Friday Reads!
