Some of my favorite quotes from “Percy Jackson and the Chalice of the Gods.
1. “Look, I didn't want to be a high school senior. I was hoping my dad could write me a note:
Dear Whoever,
Please excuse Percy Jackson from school forever and just give him the diploma.
Thanks, Poseidon”
Already starting off strong I see.
2. “ My second thought was: Why do the gods keep losing their magic items? It was like a job requitement for them:
1) become a god, 2) get a cool magic thing, 3) lose it,
4) ask a demigod to find it. Maybe they just enjoyed doing it, the way cats like knocking things off tables.”
Percy still has his snark I see.
3. “I am a guy of limited talents. If I can't kill it with water, a sword, or sarcasm, I am basically defenseles. I come preloaded with sarcasm. The pen-sword is always in my pocket. Now I had access to water, so I was as prepared as I could ever be.”
See even he knows his sarcasm is a weapon.
4. “A shiver ran across my shoulders. The last thing the world needed was boomers aging backward, like, We enjoyed monopolizing the planet so much the first time, we're going to do it again!”
Too true!!
5. “ "Do I get to say this is a terrible idea, too?" Grover asked.
"Just do your best," Annabeth said. "You're the fastest runner. You're also the only one who speaks Chicken."
"Technically Chicken isn't a distinct language," he said, "though many animal dialects sound just like Chicken…”
"Dude, just yell at them," I suggested "Do you any fowl insults?"
"This is a family amusement center!"
"Where they are trying to kill us for complaining
"Good point," Grover said. "I will insult the chickens” “
This chaotic conversation. Another for the unhinged moments like the Dam scene.
6. “I also didn't want to die, but at least if I got killed down here, Annabeth would feel really bad about pushing me. Then I could tease her about it forever.
Except I'd be dead. Never mind.”
Love that.
7. “—and also how the kite had gotten zapped by lightning (in the middle of a sunny day) as soon as it was airborne. Even back then, before I knew I was a demigod, Zeus had been watching me. Because that's what you do when you're the king of the gods. You spend your valuable time being as petty as possible, frying forbidden kids' kites out of the sky for fun.”
Of course Zeus is a petty bitch.
8. “I remembered learning about some Norse wolf named Garm, but I wasn't the Mighty Thor, so I didn't want to cross that particular Rainbow Bridge. I had enough to worry about on the Greek side.”
The nice little nod to the Magnus Chase series before he knows it’s a thing.
I added these to my notes as I read this when it came out. I wanted to give some time before posting it. I’ll still mark spoilers even though I don’t think these give much away.

annabeth chase is black in the books at least because percy thought that sadie kane would look like their own child. and *ba-dum-tss* sadie is BIRACIAL.
(@ to the people who are saying that if annabeth is black in the tv series doesn’t mean that she’s supposed to be black in the books).

Siblings be like:
“Grover was sniffing the wind, looking nervous. He fished out his acorns and threw them into the sand, then played his pipes. They rearranged themselves in a pattern that made no sense to me, but Grover looked concerned.
"That's us," he said. "Those five nuts right there."
"Which one is me?" I asked.
"The little deformed one," Zoe suggested.
"Oh, shut up.”
