I read mythology stories incessantly as a kid. Most of the books I loved were the guide-to's and encyclopedias and stuff like that. As far as I can tell, that's not uncommon, and the natural extension of that interest is of course Percy Jackson & the Olympians, a middle-grade greek mythology novel series.

Alana Herrnson loves the Percy Jackson & The Olympians series!!! Listen to her defend some puny son of poseidon like she was paid to.
