The worst thing about my book is...

The worst thing about my book is that at the beginning of most of the chapters, it changes perspective to another person. This is a problem because there is two real main conflicts between Percy and Annabeth being stuck somewhere else other than the rest of the characters. This is a problem because I got really into a chapter and then it ended. So normally the conflict would pick up right after in the next chapter. Wrong. The next chapter went into the situation and now I have to read more before I can find out what happened. Now sometimes this can be a good thing. When there is nothing going on in one area of the story, it will change over into the other and then the book will pick back up. But then the chapter will end and you might not know what will happen for a few chapters. This leads to frustration and questioning of the author.

Describe how the different characters deal with the main conflict in the novel

Different characters deal with the conflict differently than others. For example, Percy is more optimistic about the situation than Annabeth. Percy is super nice and thinks about all the good things that could come out of the situation. Annabeth however, thinks about the bad and the possible death or how they could get seperated. Hazel and Jason are both in different situations than Percy and Annabeth. Hazel thinks about situations just like Percy and is optimistic. Jason is like Annabeth and thinks about all the bad things and is pestimistic. Although the characters have different problems, some have the same attitude.
