I remember watching this movie and thinking it was absolutely terrible. It was part of the reason it took me so long to read the books. I should have known better. This was so good. I loved Tyson so much. There was a lot of action in this book and I never found myself bored. It was a really fast read!
I love Carrie Fisher and this is my second book by her. It was a lot better than Princess Diarist. I did find myself thinking there was a lot lacking to this book. It was all a lot of her airing her family’s dirty laundry. It was funny and witty at times, I’ll give her that. I think that I would have liked it better if it were longer and had a little more depth.

I have only seen the first of the Percy Jackson series, which I think is good because I’m planning on trying to read the series before the show starts.

It’s definitely why I just started reading them. I’m hoping to finish before the show, even though it’s sooo far away. haha

I listened to the audiobook of wishful drinking a year or so ago and totally agree with you on the dirty laundry and depth! I still have to read Princess Diarist, so we’ll see how I like that one

I read the Princess Diarist and I was also disappointed with that one. It wasn’t really about what it was marketed. Interesting parts but overall I didn’t love it.

Yeah, I think I remember some mixed reviews. I own it, so I’ll eventually read it and then probably donate it.

I thought the book Sea of Monsters was much better than the movie version, too.
