Before I read BOO half the fandom unintentionally told me that Leo would die. I pushed that thought deep inside me and started reading.

I had vowed (thankfully not sworn on River Styx) that I would devour every single word and read the book slowly and Not finish it in a day

In a way I did keep my promise... I finished it in two days

Rick had me hooked at the very first sentence ( Jason hated being old ) and the starting was hilarious and the next few pages were mesmerising.

Day one I managed to control myself and read only till the completion of the trio's quest

Day two I could not stop myself and my inner bookworm was unleashed and I got totally absorbed in the demigod world.

Believe me I tried to stop but at every line there was a suspense, urging me to read ahead. I was in too deep

Before I knew it I had spent whole of my day after the school reading.

The problems arised at night when the end came nearer. When Leo made the plan my heart thumped like anything, remembering the warnings

When Hazel and Frank came to knw of his plan and hugged him while crying, I felt like crying myself

I wanted to scream at the book, at Leo to not follow his dangerous plan. But there was no stopping him

When Zeus threw ArgoII and Leo was alone I felt like my heart stopped beating. And then he faced Dirt Face.

I felt so proud of him. But there was that clash and I had to stop. I lay in my bed with tears in my eyes. I lay there. For maybe an hour or two. The whole house was in silence. I quietly got up, switched on my night lamp and resumed reading

With an empty feeling in my heart I turned the pages. He is not dead, he dissapeared - I kept replaying these lines in my mind as I read on but when Nico said he felt him die I almost gave up

But he said he died differently and I refused to beleive the truth. There was hope.

And when I read the Leo chapter.....
I had a huge smile on my face.

He is alive
With Calypso

And I was bouncing up and down and fangirling and screaming in the middle of the night as silently as I could

Nico was wrong.
Hazel was wrong.

LEO IS BACK!

And now!
To the entire fandom who made me think Leo would die AND Rick who said not all of the seven would survive ------ I HATE YOU FOR DECEIVING ME!
