I'm currently reading The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. It's the first installment of the 5-book saga Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I wasn't able to watch the movie when it was shown here in Australia. I'm not fussed though. One friend said the movie didn't do the book justice. For me it's always the case. I mean how can you compress three hundred or so pages (heaps more for some books like Harry Potter) into less than two hours of film? Going back to Percy Jackson, I'm halfway through the first book and I'm really enjoying it. It's a very light read and the fact that I've always been interested in mythology is a plus. I know it's a young adult book but who cares? =)
