The Son Of Neptune

The Son Of Neptune is a very good book that I am in the middle of. So far it is about a young demigod named Percy Jackson that lost his memory but is on a quest with social outcasts Frank Zhang and Hazel Levasque. There job is to go to Alaska and stop an evil monster. If they fail monsters will rule the world forever.
I think that this book is very succesful because I is the second book in a series that was a continuation of another series. I love how it is exciting and keeps you reading. I am dying to know about Hazels past right now. I would heavily recommend this book to everyone.

Right now I am reading The Bad Guys Won, a book about the 1986 New York Mets. The Mets were the absolute worst team in baseball in the 70s, but were slowly getting better and better, until 1986, when they were considered the favorites to win the world series. The team was consisted of drug users,camera lovers and gang members, making them the most hated team in baseball by a lot. But if you're good, you dont need to be liked.

I think it was interesting what kind of people the Mets were made up of, like outfielder Kevin Mitchell, who didn't know that the statue of liberty was in New York until his rookie year in the MLB. Kevin Mitchell often threatened to kill players when he was in the minors, but matured when he aged. Basically The Bad Guys Won is about the rowdiest, hated and most obnoxious team maybe in baseball history, and one of the best.
