  A. Blue.
  B. Yellow, or gold.
  C. Green.
  D. Purple.
  E. Orange.
  F. Black.



If you got mostly A's, you are Percy Jackson.
Percy Jackson is the son of Poseidon. He can control the water and heal with the water. He's very determined, pretty funny, and a nice character. He can be very caring and clever. He's not particularly smart, but he is by no means stupid. He can be a little stubborn and a little prideful, and loyalty is his downfall (like Harry Potter), but he knows what's best for his friends.






If you got mostly B's, you are Jason Grace.
Jason Grace is the son of Jupiter. He can control the air and fly, but he never really uses it to do anything useful. Supposedly one of the most heroic ones, but that is up for debate. He is attractive and likable, serious at most times, prideful, stubborn, but he's also very kind to the people he loves. He's pretty popular, because he is the son of such a major god. His loyalties can be questionable, though.






If you got mostly C's, you are Annabeth Chase.
Annabeth Chase is the daughter of Athena. She's extremely intelligent and very clever. She's determined, headstrong, slightly introverted, but also amazing. She's a little prideful, and she hates to be wrong, but she usually isn't. She never gives up and is usually the calmest one in bad situations.





If you got mostly D's, you are Frank Zhang.
Frank is the son of Mars. He has great combat abilities, but he's also a little awkward. He's very caring, very kind, and very considerate. Just don't get on his bad side, because he is also a great leader and excels in battle (because his dad is Mars.)








If you got mostly E's, you are Leo Valdez.
Leo is the son of Hephaestus. He is great with tools, and he's very witty. He has a bit of a double impulse, because he is a very introverted person, but he also wants to fit in with his friends. He's a fantastic mechanic, and he knows how to make his friends laugh. However, he's not that great with intimate relationships, so he has trouble getting girlfriends. (We'll see in the BoO. We'll see.)






If you got mostly F's, you are Nico di Angelo.
Everyone's favorite minor character. He is the son of Hades. He can raise the dead and create armies with the dead, which is generally cool. He's a pretty emotional kid, even though he acts indifferent to a lot of things. (The House of Hades. You know what I'm talking about.) He's not fantastic in social situations, and he usually comes off as kind of creepy, but every fangirl just sees him as mysterious.





Well, I hope you guys enjoyed that. It's not very accurate, I know. But it's still pretty fun and this along with fanfiction is all we can do until The Blood of Olympus comes out.

Book Quiz: Which book should you read next?

You might want to get out a piece of paper so you can remember your answers.
Also, this quiz is not particularly for lovers of nonfiction.

1. What is your favorite genre?
  A. Fantasy
  B. Science Fiction
  C. Dystopian, I suppose, if you can call that a genre.
  D. Realistic or historical fiction

2. What do you like to read about?

  C. There are some older books that I like, but I wouldn't necessarily call them classics.
  D. I'll read classics. I like them.

4. What aspects of a book do you hate?
  A. Slow, boring plots where the main character isn't doing anything interesting. "Katie went to the mall and realized she was depressed, so she bought some frozen yogurt and watched TV for the rest of the day."
  B. I hate when the author chooses to inform you about the situation and not entertain you with the situation. "Katie heard the door creak open. 'Hello?' she called. 'Who's there?' she questioned. 'Mom?' she wondered. She opened the brown, wooden closet door and pulled out a 2B-A-30 Russian Assault rifle that was 7.62 x 39 millimeters. 'I have a gun,' she warned."
  C. I hate it when an author creates this amazing setting and then just ruins it with everything else.
  D. I hate when books don't make sense. (For example: Sadie is 14. The book takes place five years later and she's 21.)
