"There Will Be Blood"



"There Will Be Blood"



     I am going to do another post about the Blood of Olympus because I just wanted to share some other info regarding this book.

     I started reading this book on Saturday last week and finished it on Friday.  I'd say this was the fastest I've ever read a 500 page book. There were 2 main reasons for this:
1) This book was a fantastic read and it a bit poignant during the last 100 pages because...

 * SPOILER ALERT* Leo dies. He was one of my favorite characters during the course of book and I just didn't want him to die. But I guess it was alright because he didn't actually die.*

2) My Friend got this book on the Wednesday before the Saturday I got it and he said that we are going to have a race. A race on who can finish the book before the other. It wasn't really fair because by the time I got the book, he was already on 250. I started to read for an hour or an an hour and a half, everyday. Just sitting on the couch, with all electronics away, so I don't get distracted. By Wednesday, the both of us were on 300! I couldn't believe I caught up. He thought I was lying so he asked he around 10 questions, and after I got them all right, I thought Now... It's WAR!

BLAH BLAH, I'll jump to the part I WON! On Friday, I finished the book at exactly 7:02 pm. And I texted him that. He replies, "We never shook on it." And a couple of other excuses like, "My dad made me do SAT practice everyday so I didn't get time to read." Buuuttttt, I don't care, because I WON!
