2. My favorite fantasy book and more so series has to be the Percy Jackson series. I got really deep into these books in the fifth grade and this love for the books continued as I read them throughout middle school. The whole setting and basis of these novels were so exciting to me and took me to a completely different place. I was around the same age Percy Jackson was, and I was able to see myself as the son of some Greek god, and just another camper at Half Blood Hill along with all of these other demigods. I almost became jealous of Percy and I wanted to desperately live the life of a teenage hero who was the son of Poseidon.

Fantasy/Science Fiction
1. I like fiction novels for the most part, but there are some sub genres of it that I don’t like all that well. Fantasy allows me to go to a completely different place and look at things from a different perspective. I like my life and how it is playing out, but sometimes it is good to get out of it and live another reality. There are so many possibilities for this, and a really good novel can expand your imagination and creativity. Growing up, fantasy was my favorite type of book because I could easily imagine myself in these places and situations. I can attribute a love for reading from an early age because of these enthralling fiction novels.

I have never read the Percy Jackson series, but now I am intrigued to do so!
ReplyDeleteThe "Percy Jackson" series was a fun read when I read it a few years ago. I can relate the the prior feelings of jealousy since I used to want there to be more to reality than just reality itself.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice, I did the same thing! I only ever read the first novel, but I don't know why I didn't continue the series. It's so interesting and unique.
ReplyDeleteI also really enjoyed this series and thought about how sweet it would have been to be Percy Jackson, being able to control water and going on fun adventure.
