12 Books That Will Make You An Even Better Sister, Because They Have Tons Of Lessons To Teach Us


As one half of a tight-knit pair of sisters, I am always interested in how media and pop culture represent that relationship. Are the women stark contrasts? Best friends? Rivals? Virtual strangers? After all, just as no two people are exactly alike, neither are any two sisterly bonds: some sisters love each other because they’re family, others because they’re truly kindred spirits, and some can go months or even years without talking.
I’m lucky to be in a fantastic relationship with my sis, but I’ve found that in the pages of books, I’ve learned a thing or two about deepening our relationship even further. I know, I know — to say that a book “teaches” us something sounds almost juvenile. I’m not talking about a moral tied up in a little bow, however, but rather a story and its language that shines a light into the corner of my own heart, illuminating something true.

A super fan by the online name of “Patrick”, has been working on a script for the third film with hopes of increasing awareness in the film. He has been working on a number of scripts and has finally released his rough draft. Under the working title “Percy Jackson & The Titan’s Curse Treatment“, Patrick’s script has made a huge impact on the Percy Jackson fan scene. Multiple fan sites have since picked up the script, and it has become quite popular. It’s stated that Patrick has a huge interest in writing fiction, and is a massive fan of Percy Jackson author, Rick Jordan.
