Ah yes, the most dangerous game: not having any local libraries or money, so you risk getting virus on all your electronics to download pdfs of the books you're so desperate for

It kind of bugs me when people who have read Percy Jackson say "O i wish i could read this again for the first time". It envys me, because I have barely any memory of when i read pjo for the first time. Sure they are my favorite books and they are what got me into reading, but i read them when i was really young.

This meant for me that i rememberd the plot, but not/barely any of my reactions to it. I can never say, "Wow i remember being so suprised when this and this happend etc." So when i read these books for the second time i wasn't suprised by the plot anymore, no shocking reactions for me.

The one comfort i have is that of what i do remember, how i liked the funny chapter names. But mostly, the feeling i had when i read the books and my growing love for them. It makes reading them again also incredibly amazing.

And for me, maybe even better than the first time i read the books.

What are your thoughts on this?
