Thank you for the early fandom-versary and late birthday wishes!!!

Percy Jackson is a bit of a weird series to start in halfway through. It's definitely possible, but there are some super confusing parts. I'd say, like Harry Potter, skim through the first hundred or so pages until you get into the actual story. It's one of the dangers of a series with a lot of back-stories that you end up losing more readers during a less engaging exposition. Otherwise, they're great books and I think you'll enjoy the humour.

I'll be sure to read 'The Eighth Day'! It seems really interesting (from the blurb at least)

Violin neck fatigue sounds pretty common, alongside finger cramping and painful blisters. You do get used to it, though. Do you use a shoulder rest? They help to take pressure off your neck/collarbones. Your arm could also get tired; I've gained a surprising amount of arm strength from the violin. As for the piano, cool! I'm mostly self-taught, but I'm starting lessons this summer.

I've missed you too <3
