Mark of Athena

Words cannot describe how ecstatic I am right now. The Son of Neptune came was released last year in October, and being the obsessive person I am, I finished it on the day it came out of course. I have been waiting for this moment ever since.

It has been a whole year that most of us obsessed fans have been anticipating, and finally it is here. The Mark of Athena is released tomorrow, at exactly 12 o'clock. I know that sounds a bit strange, like why would they even care about the hour? But it becomes available to the public at exactly midnight. And because I am a person who needs books right away and who reads way too much, I own a nook, and I've already preordered it. At 12 tonight, I will own my own copy of Mark of Athena!

I can't wait. I'm tempted to stay up late just so I can start reading it, but that would be disastrous, considering I'm already behind on sleep. And for my high school, it actually matters unfortunately. So even if I do stay up, I'll have to sleep right away anyway. No, I will most likely just wake up early tomorrow morning and start reading and get late for school, resulting in detention from my French teacher, which is alright considering the circumstances. It is totally worth it.

Anyway, that is all I wanted to say, a book I've been waiting for for a year is coming out tonight. And those who are reading the series who never keep track of release dates (like me) can be enlightened by my amazing news worth a whole post about.

So...yay! :D

What high school do you go to? I haven't bought the Mark of Athena yet...I did read the Son of Neptune, but didn't find it as good as The Lost Hero...

@Connie: EVHS...just like your brother. He's in my physics class I think XD. And seriously? I <3 Son of Neptune, I liked it way more than The Lost Hero, although I guess it's because it had NICO<3 and Percy in it. XD

@Molly: What?! You preordered it and you can actually read it right now? I only get it at 12! I hate you! Burning with envy right now.

Oh...do you have the early or the later schedule? Yeah, I like The Lost Hero better. I do like The Son of Neptune...just not as much.

Fira Marine said...

I have the late schedule. And that's just crazy. :D But I just finished Mark of Athena...and I'm NOT happy.
