I'm super visual when reading books and usually see the whole thing playing like a movie in my head, and when I first read the PJO books I had a very clear mental picture of Percy, but this time around it's much more blurry... cause Percy's kind of just faded into me in my mind.
#i think it's crucial that i first read these books the summer before my first big school related break down#the age when my goodkid.mp3 syndrome really caught up with me#cause it was really the start of me figuring that part of myself out#and that journey didn't really come into a full picture until 3 years later when i got my autism and adhd diagnosis#and didn't really end until this year when i finally learned to stop feeling guilty over when my neurodivergentsies became hard for people#to deal with#and i started getting mad at people for having a problem with them instead of apologetic for inconveniencing them#like... i don't think 14 year old me saw herself as particularly similar to percy but there was clearly a subconscious recognition there#that made me love the books so much#leave it to me to turn everything into a narrative but it really feels meant to be that i returned to these books this year#it's making the whole thing come full circle#mal rereads pjo#pjo#percy jackson#personal
