The+Titan's+Curse

Hi, everyone!! Mrs. Gerber is learning how to make a class wiki so we can talk about //The Titan's Curse// and other books you love to read! This page is only going to be for people to talk about //The Titan's Curse//, but I will make other pages for other books you like! I know many of you have already this one or are in the process of reading it. I'm planning to read it over the break, so I'll start posting when we come back.

12/17/09 Please write to eveyone about your favorite monster from //The Titan's Curse//... why is it so cool? Why is it your favorite? How did Rick Riordan use words to paint a picture in your mind of that monster?

12/18/09 I stayed up until 1:00 am last night and finished the book. I have to say I didn't like it as much as //Sea of Monsters//. And the whole chapter about the Hoover Dam... it kind of bothered me. It was funny at first, but I think the author went a little over-board with the "dam" jokes. For that reason alone, I wouldn't be comfortable reading it in class. BUT... I am glad to see that maybe there's hope for Luke. It sounds like it might not be all his fault that he's being such an awful person. I think most "bad guys" are not all bad, just like all heroes are not all good. People are more complicated that that. I'm glad Rick Riordan (the author) is doing that with his characters. What do you guys think????
