'The Battle of the Labyrinth'; 'Americanah'

I'm a new Percy Jackson fan- I cannot get enough of this kid, he just makes me laugh and laugh and laugh.



If you've never been charged by an enthusiastic Cyclops wearing a flowered apron and rubber cleaning gloves, I'm telling you, it'll wake you up quick. (pg. 34)
Seriously, cannot get enough, and then there's Americanah:



Dike called out from the bathroom, where he had been sent to brush his teeth before bed. / "Dike, I mechago?" Ifemelu asked. "/ "Please don't speak Igbo to him," Aunty Uju said. "Two languages will confuse him." / "What are you talking about, Aunty? We spoke two languages growing up." / "This is America. It's different."
