Percy Jackson and the Olympans: The Titan's Curse, by Rick Riordan, is the third book in the series. The book shows a lot of Greek mythology, as in the other two books. Percy Jackson, is yet again about to get the adventure of his lifetime... in the middle of the winter! He is on an assignment for a couple half-bloods at a military school. The two half-bloods are Bianca di and Niko Caprio. Then, a manticore just happens to be the general of the school, and Percy gets in big trouble. Luckily the Hunters(a team of Artemis's army) came and saved the day. The story leads the half-blood warriors on a long journey to San Fransisco in search of Annebeth who mysteriously disappears. Unfortunately, many obstacles stand in their way. It all comes down to one last battle between Atlas, a very powerful titan, and Zoe Nightshade. This book was very interesting with a few twists you might not get at first!

One Crazy Summer
"I'm Cecile Johnson and these are mine," Delphine and her sisters heard the women claim.Yet somehow Delphine knew she was their mother. One Crazy Summer, by Rita Willams-Garcia is the story of three young girls looking for their mother. Their mother left them when she couldn't name Fern, Afua. Delphine lives in New York, with her sisters, Voneta and Fern. To meet their mother they travel to Oakland, California. When the three sisters get there, things aren't what they would expect. They ate take-out every night, went to the community center for breakfast, and went to Black Panther summer school. Most importantly, its horrible not having a mother who cares for you, and says she didn't want to have them at all. Then in the middle of the book, comes Cecile's arrest, finding out she is called Nzilla , and a rally supporting the Black Panthers. In the end, Cecile becomes more like a mother to them on the last day that they spent there,before going home, without her. I liked this book, since it included real facts mixed in with the fiction.
