Books to read based on Camp Halfblood cabins
Hello, my lovely readers! I wanted to do another book recommendations blog post because I love them and it's always fun to write them (but also really hard to find the exact books that match the theme of the post). Either way I am very excited to share with you this one. It's rather different (?) maybe, of what I usually write, but I thought it'd be a fun way to promote books/support books.

Of course I will have something wrong or some people might say that "that book doesn't belong there!" or some stuff like that. It's okay, I know that it could happen. I see them this way and I totally approve of people who might view it differently. I would like to think that the characters might go to Camp Halfblood and just spend a summer there.
I did take some characteristics of PJO's gods (some friends helped me with it. Shout out to Eri, Mana, Sue, Cam, Liv, @UtopiaMind, @CandidCeillie!). But I also researched more about the gods and what kind of gods they were so I could find more books. So it definitely has a bit of everything; I don't know if I need to put as title "Books based on Greek Gods" "Books Based on Camp Halfblood Cabins" or just anything to do with greek gods lmao.
