I love the Percy Jackson books so much! I really wish they'd existed when I was 10, but I still find there's a lot to love about them even though I'm now enough older than the primary cast that my response is less 'yes! let's go on an adventure!' and more 'oh, sweethearts, i wish i could tell you this would all be okay'. They're intricately-plotted and slyly funny and beautifully characterized. All the hearts!
I've always enjoyed Riordan's writing, but the most recent Heroes of Olympus novel just floored me. So beautiful. As well as better, they're also getting longer as they go, so you'd have several thousands of pages to sink your teeth into, with the final book coming out in October.

With a rec like that, I am definitely checking out the Percy Jackson books next!

There's some PG romance, but also a lot of very excellent (and significant to character/plot) friendships in both series, so I suspect and hope that you'll enjoy them.

You know me well and only strengthens my desire to read these books.
