You're about to read The Titan's Curse so here is some advise: One of my fav characters is introduced in this book love him sadness, have tissues immediately read battle of labyrinth bc feels cuddle in blankets with snacks you're welcome
I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was really good. I love the amount of Percabeth moments we got. My favorite scene of them was when they were in a bubble and passing the Sirens and she was seeing her desire of her saving her parents and being with Luke and Thalia. After the vision ended, she began sobbing into Percy's shoulder and he held her.🤧😍 I felt bad for Tyson in the beginning. Percy was mad and embarrassed by him because of how Tyson acted like a child, but I was glad towards the end he accepted him as his brother and called him his baby brother and also ended up defending him. 😍 That part was so adorable.
The Sea of Monsters is my least favorite Percy Jackson book, a lot of my friends stopped reading the series because of it (I was one of those people) but I encourage everybody to read on because it does get waay better!
My least favourite too. I read the whole series in two-three days a few weeks ago and it was sooooooo good! I have two more exams left this week, and so I think I'll start Hereos Of Olympus soon.
I understand that I'm in the severe minority but I actually really liked Sea of Monsters. I'd say it's probably my third favorite after the Last Olympian and The Lightning Thief.
In Ancient Greek it would be spelt something like Έρμης, they didn’t have a letter h in Greek (because it’s kinda just a sound you say before a verb) the have a ‘ instead which tells you to pronounce he instead of just e
Love the shirt! Many things occur in this series with no explanation. It's part of what makes it great. Especially when the gods themselves act like clueless teenagers as opposed to deities. I still adore the series, but I think that part appealed to me a lot more when I was in middle school.
Missed these long(er) reviews, you're hilarious. I love that you're reading PJO and reviewing it now, particularly because I just finished the series and it's fresh in my mind.
I loooooove the Percy Jackson series so much! Now THAT series is a well written book! I'm so glad you are finally reading the PJO series, Jesse. Your reviews and videos (as always) are extremely funny! Keep up the great effort!
LOL. That's why I don't tend to title these videos book reviews, because they're not. They're more so just my reactions on everything. I did mention that this was a review in the video though, which I shouldn't have done. Oh well!
He pretty much talked about each thing in the book and gave his feelings on them. Is that not the same as a review or...? Doesn't a summary of the book and a review of it kind of go hand-in-hand?
I love the Percy Jackson series, it's amazing and I need to read them again, though I'm reading divergent now so I can't DDX and your commentary on this was hilarious!!
This review was so funny Jesse! I loved sea of monsters and I love Tyson too the way you know there's something cutely off with him and my favorite moment in the sea of monsters was absolutely when Tyson screamed "PONY!" @ Chiron 😳😝 and I've been waiting to ask you through the whole review, where da heck did you get that camp half blood shirt?! You're my favorite book tuber! -Kian
Tyson's just the best, I sympathize with him the most cause he's always so misunderstood, and then we get to the end and everyone loves him and he's just the most adorable thing ever
I haven't even read book one, but I don't even care! You are so much fun to watch and I love how you describe what you've read...truly entertaining! So glad I found you Jesse!
Are you going to read the Heroes of Olympus series as well? That series happens around 8 months after the end of the Percy Jackson series, its much more grown up and complex, I liked it a little bit better than the PJO series but they're both my all time favorites
I love watching your reactions to this series! I hope you get around to Titan's curse soon, it's one of my favourites! And what I mean by that is that they're all my favourites 😂
I thought of something Percy: I wasn’t sure if I was to kneel or buy stamps or what Also Percy: lord Hermes about Luke, Hermes thinking: I just wanted to sell some stamps
The lighting thief was read to my class when I was 12 but I started reading the sea monster on my own I wouldn't able to read or be on Booktube if it wasn't for this series
This is one of my favourite books (still doesn't beat the 4th one), although I say that about most books I read!! 😂😂😂 Jesse you are by far the best person ever, even though I have like major book-shelf envy. But that doesn't matter anyway!!! 🙌🏻😂😂😂😂😂😜🤗
Don't feel bad about not liking this book as much as the first! I totally agree with what you said about this book being a stepping stone for the rest of he series. My personal favorite book is Battle of the Labyrinth.(great review btw)
I LOVE TYSON. And I understand Percy a little about his half-brother but I love that by the end of this book this were much better. BTW YOUR REVIEW WAS FANTASTIC :) I was laughing so hard at the quotes and scenes you pointed out
So I started reading the sea of monsters and I'm halfway through the book and I look on good reads and it says Jesse has started reading the sea of monsters. I'm now on the Titans curse and am super excited for the rest of the series. And I need to know where your shirt is from, it's perfect⚡️🌊
I live this series!!! In actually re-reading it right now and am in the fourth book. The second series is just as good if not better so when you finish this series, go and read that one. (Even though the second series of his books is technically the Kane chronicles, but the second series with Percy in it is heroes of Olympus.)
Jesse is happy about Grover's acne being mentioned... Seems thankful for the diversity of like character appearance and I can't help but think about the amount of diversity in heros of olympus and I'm literally waiting for Jesse to do a review video for the heros of olympus books
tbh, the sea of monsters wasn't my least favorite book, but someone of my favorite characters are introduced in the Titans Curse, so... it gets better, I promise!
Yes that means you are right before my favorite book of the series! And yeah, Rick makes you relate with some facts about some characters... (~is this foreshadowing? Am I just being weird? We may never know~) Also, you recreating some moments from the book was better than the whole two movies.
Have u heard Cassandra Clare is writing a series all about Magnus bane (adult series) and it's coming out I think she said November 2017 (I'm not sure about the month)
Jesse what was your opinion on everything that happened with Tyson? Like when Percy thought he was dead and then started appreciating him? I was kind of mad that it took a fake death experience for Percy to realize how much Tyson should mean to him. That could just be me though
out of the whole series I like the last olympian, then the battle of the labyrinth,the lightning thief, the sea of monsters, and finally the titan's curse in order
OH MY GOD TEEN APOLLO HAS ACNE TOO XD
I was think about that too!
Are you doing a Hidden Oracle review soon?
are you going to do a book talk about it?
Christine,Please do a review of the first trials of Applo book. 😁
Don't forget the FLAB
Seriously, one of my favorite things about the PJ series are the chapter titles. XD
Omg yes. One of my favs is Nico Buys Happy Meals For the Dead
Same😂
They're so funny 😂😂😂

Same likes it’s a quick summery of the chapter 🤣
TYSON IS A BEAN AND WE NEED TO PROTECT HIM
Agreed!
Yass

Nikki Poulos
Nico di Angelo
Nikki Poulos Nico is one of my favorite characters too
Finally Jesse. It took almost 2 years, but at least you got to it.
Hermes is actually pronounced like herpes, but with an 'M' instead of a 'P'.
I know I saw it and didn't mind, then realized it was published 13 minutes ago
+Khari Walton love how you explained that pronunciation, lol.
I would pay to see Jesse reenact the whole Percy Jackson conversations!
Neha The Jedi
SAME
I was suspicious of Tyson for so long. I'm so glad it wasn't just me. I need to reread it now that I don't feel like he's going to betray Percy.
"There's something fishy bout' you, brother!"
I'm not sure if you did that on purpose, but it made me laugh.
I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was really good. I love the amount of Percabeth moments we got. My favorite scene of them was when they were in a bubble and passing the Sirens and she was seeing her desire of her saving her parents and being with Luke and Thalia. After the vision ended, she began sobbing into Percy's shoulder and he held her.🤧😍 I felt bad for Tyson in the beginning. Percy was mad and embarrassed by him because of how Tyson acted like a child, but I was glad towards the end he accepted him as his brother and called him his baby brother and also ended up defending him. 😍 That part was so adorable.
The Sea of Monsters is my least favorite Percy Jackson book, a lot of my friends stopped reading the series because of it (I was one of those people) but I encourage everybody to read on because it does get waay better!
Also Jesse I love your shirt!
Sea Of Monsters Is My Least Favorite Too , But Everyone Says It Gets Better
Sea of Monsters was my favorite until The Last Olympian. I guess I'm in the minority
My least favourite too. I read the whole series in two-three days a few weeks ago and it was sooooooo good! I have two more exams left this week, and so I think I'll start Hereos Of Olympus soon.
Michele Pontmercy I thought sea of monsters was good I mean my favorite is battle of the labyrinth
YAAAAS YOURE READING THESE!!!!!
I laughed so hard at your re-enactment of the "hubris" scene XD
I understand that I'm in the severe minority but I actually really liked Sea of Monsters. I'd say it's probably my third favorite after the Last Olympian and The Lightning Thief.
My Second favorite! With The Last Olympian being #1!
Imaginary, over TH-cam Fist Bump!
*returns, imaginary over TH-cam Fist Bump!*
the last olympian was laif
Laif?
DID HE CALL HERMES "airmez" ???
Yep, but according to my honors lit teacher, that's how it's originally pronounced. I don't know XD
I always thought of it as 'her-meez.' Who really knows though?
Nina Anthony WHEN HE SAID IT I WAS LIKE 'WHO THE F IS AIRMEZ????'
In Ancient Greek it would be spelt something like Έρμης, they didn’t have a letter h in Greek (because it’s kinda just a sound you say before a verb) the have a ‘ instead which tells you to pronounce he instead of just e
Its Her - Mes
I love tyson, he's so cute. And you're right Percy is the best narrator ever!!
Love the shirt! Many things occur in this series with no explanation. It's part of what makes it great. Especially when the gods themselves act like clueless teenagers as opposed to deities. I still adore the series, but I think that part appealed to me a lot more when I was in middle school.
Missed these long(er) reviews, you're hilarious. I love that you're reading PJO and reviewing it now, particularly because I just finished the series and it's fresh in my mind.
"So we've got Thalia back! What does this mean for the rest of the series?" It means that you're going to get shocked...okay I'll leave
Anyone else pronounce Thalia with the "th" sound?
Yes!
My friend does
I pronounce it Tha-li-ah. Is that what you mean?
I watched Vincentvanstop's review and she says it with a Th sound!
ive allways pronounced it with a hard T like T-EYE-LAH
I love Annabeth so much but Titan's Curse is my favorite book in the series. It was just DAM good. ;) PLUS MY BABY NICO NICO NICO NICO NICO.
Paula Micah HAHA YOUR DAM RIGHT
Paula Micah 😂
I loooooove the Percy Jackson series so much! Now THAT series is a well written book! I'm so glad you are finally reading the PJO series, Jesse. Your reviews and videos (as always) are extremely funny! Keep up the great effort!
Is this a book review or a detailed, paragraph-by-paragraph book summary? 😂
LOL. That's why I don't tend to title these videos book reviews, because they're not. They're more so just my reactions on everything. I did mention that this was a review in the video though, which I shouldn't have done. Oh well!
He pretty much talked about each thing in the book and gave his feelings on them. Is that not the same as a review or...? Doesn't a summary of the book and a review of it kind of go hand-in-hand?
Well the title never says that it's a review
This video made me want to reread the series. It's been so long! You talking about it is bringing back all the memories!
me too.
I want a gif of Jesse's face doing "Oh Shnap" at 8:09
I love the Percy Jackson series, it's amazing and I need to read them again, though I'm reading divergent now so I can't DDX and your commentary on this was hilarious!!
This review was so funny Jesse! I loved sea of monsters and I love Tyson too the way you know there's something cutely off with him and my favorite moment in the sea of monsters was absolutely when Tyson screamed "PONY!" @ Chiron 😳😝 and I've been waiting to ask you through the whole review, where da heck did you get that camp half blood shirt?!

Tyson's just the best, I sympathize with him the most cause he's always so misunderstood, and then we get to the end and everyone loves him and he's just the most adorable thing ever
Hermes is pronounced her-meez btw :)
Rick has the best titles for chapters ever
I haven't even read book one, but I don't even care! You are so much fun to watch and I love how you describe what you've read...truly entertaining! So glad I found you Jesse!
Are you going to read the Heroes of Olympus series as well? That series happens around 8 months after the end of the Percy Jackson series, its much more grown up and complex, I liked it a little bit better than the PJO series but they're both my all time favorites
DaemoniumExcelsum yes!! I loved both series strongly recommend!
I think Rick's chapter titles are one of my favorite parts of the PJO books- they are always hilarious!
I'm so with you!!!
I love watching your reactions to this series! I hope you get around to Titan's curse soon, it's one of my favourites! And what I mean by that is that they're all my favourites 😂

Hermes thinking: I just wanted to sell some stamps
The lighting thief was read to my class when I was 12 but I started reading the sea monster on my own I wouldn't able to read or be on Booktube if it wasn't for this series

So I started reading the sea of monsters and I'm halfway through the book and I look on good reads and it says Jesse has started reading the sea of monsters. I'm now on the Titans curse and am super excited for the rest of the series. And I need to know where your shirt is from, it's perfect⚡️🌊
These book reviews are just recaps of my favorite series, oh the memories I have from reading these books.
Titan's Curse is GREAT! You should definitely continue on with the series because it just gets better and better
I love that you get to relive an entire book within 10 minutes. thanks jesse.
I live this series!!! In actually re-reading it right now and am in the fourth book. The second series is just as good if not better so when you finish this series, go and read that one. (Even though the second series of his books is technically the Kane chronicles, but the second series with Percy in it is heroes of Olympus.)
Jesse is happy about Grover's acne being mentioned... Seems thankful for the diversity of like character appearance and I can't help but think about the amount of diversity in heros of olympus and I'm literally waiting for Jesse to do a review video for the heros of olympus books
Oh video, how I've been waiting for you.
I kind of loved that you essentially gave a synopsis of the book because it's been years since I've read PJO. Also Hermes is pronounced Her-Meez.
the way you pronounce tantalus is correct :) I studied mythology, so I'm loving these books at the moment!
Great recap I haven't read this book in like 4 years and I remember everything thanks to your review!(:
I loved tyson character so much , such a cute and innocent
I love how I just noticed how mush chaos is in this book just now because of how you explained it😂😂😂
tbh, the sea of monsters wasn't my least favorite book, but someone of my favorite characters are introduced in the Titans Curse, so... it gets better, I promise!
Tyson is my baby brother that I never had! And I hope that you're enjoying the series :)
I’m crying at all the pronunciation in this video! 😂
Hair-mez
I love as you speak about books ...
you have a new subscriber..!!
you are my favorite booktuber ever wow ily💜💙
The book basement
Your eyes look distinctly purple.
Yes that means you are right before my favorite book of the series!
And yeah, Rick makes you relate with some facts about some characters... (~is this foreshadowing? Am I just being weird? We may never know~)
Also, you recreating some moments from the book was better than the whole two movies.
I'm reading it right now so I had to stop half way, awesome review.
Your shirt is glorious!!!!
"I will never look at sheep the same way again" 😂😂
if Polythemus was a son of the sea god, he wouldn't be drenched by Percy's wave, right?
i literally just finished the book today and im excited to read the titan’s curse 🥺🥺
Have u heard Cassandra Clare is writing a series all about Magnus bane (adult series) and it's coming out I think she said November 2017 (I'm not sure about the month)
Finally Jesse!
poor Jessie I'm just thinking of when I read the Titans curse and how stressed out I was the whole time
Why
+Apollo DA did u read the Titans curse?
Yes its my favorite PJ book 3,4,5,2,1
+Apollo DA so it was stressful not knowing what was going to happen to one of the characters
Thats whst keeps u at the edge of ur seat, keeps u guessing
The sea of monsters was my favorite book so far. And I’m on the Roman series
Jesse what was your opinion on everything that happened with Tyson? Like when Percy thought he was dead and then started appreciating him? I was kind of mad that it took a fake death experience for Percy to realize how much Tyson should mean to him. That could just be me though
This brings back the feels...
I agree with Percy. What even is hummus? like, this weird lumpy beige stuff...?
My favorite character is Rachel Elizabeth Dare, Nico Di Angilo, then idk maybe zoë, or Thalia
love that series
Ya! U're finally reviewing this book. I really enjoy this book. Gave it a 4.5⭐️! Great review! Thx Jesse 4 making my day!😀
out of the whole series I like the last olympian, then the battle of the labyrinth,the lightning thief, the sea of monsters, and finally the titan's curse in order
I love that series
FINALLY YOU READ IT YAY!!!!
I have read these titans curse is my fave what's yours????
I started The Titans Curse two days ago and hope you finish it at the same time as me so I can watch your review;) (if you do one that is)💕💕
prepare to cry every book after this, it definitely gets better at book four and five
Everyones favourite PJO book is the Titan's curse. My favourite was definitely the battle of the labyrinth!!
tyson was my favourite character!!!! i miss this series now )-:
I really want to read this series!!!
Haven't finished the 2nd book yet but I gotta say I enjoyed it more than the first one (which took me a while to finish it)
It's been years since I read this series. I'm thinking of doing a reread.
"PERCY JACKSON YOU DID NOT JUST INSULT HUMMUS I FREAKIN LOVE HUMMUS" me too jesse me too XD I'm so glad your continuing this series!! Great review
I'm allergic to hummus...
I haven’t had hummus since I was 5
Did you watch the movies because the prophecy part you said happens in the last Olympian
Hermes is pronounced herm•ease
