Love it. Liv is amazing at storytelling and so damn calming. one nit picky thing (that really doesn't matter buuut) I do get annoyed when she says percy from the PJ series is a version of Perseus. He is not! He was named after him, bu
t he's not a version of him. Percy in the books is very much his own person and a good one.

So great!
