“A quite invisible catastrophe”
“Those were chaotic, makeshift days”
“Light would be unhooked from day, darkness unchained from night”

The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson-Walker

Such a good book, scarily real and believable but sadly very unknown 😢

Uh what, sorry WHAT. 😂 I actually read it Year 9 but I was obsessed because it was so easy to read but good plot and fun characters. I never got into skullduggery (I think that’s the other one you’re on about)

Of Percy or of HP? Percy Jackson there’s a whole set of five more books called Heroes of Olympus which has Percy Annabeth Nico and some other characters along with a lot of new ones but I’d definitely say although they are very good they are ‘heavier’ than the first five as in much longer and the plot is much bigger.

Then there’s a new Percy book that was out in September (set after the first 10, but you can read it without spoilers for the next 5). Then other series’ by the author who aren’t based around the main characters are trials of Apollo, Magnus chase books, Kane chronicles (think this is the name) and which go into like Nordic and Egyptian mythology and sometimes characters make guest appearances.

Basically if you liked Percy there’s a whole lot of books from that author you can read. As well as watch the show

HP I think there’s like 7 books
