Summary
We’ve returned to the classic format of bringing in Kelly for a discussion of the final chapters of a book! She’s here to conclude not only our coverage of The Last Olympian, but also the entire first series book episodes of The Newest Olympian! After covering the last chapter, we get into loads of questions from TNO patrons. Topics include: demi-satyrs, demigod prison, best friends, knowing the most, Grey’s Anatomy, The Bachelor, “You’re my person.”, seafood for breakfast, opening doors, beads, tiny names, blank spaces, Upper East Side, Heroes of Olympus predictions, 90s/00s trends, celebratory drinks, and more!
