Favorite Fictional Bookworm: Annabeth Chase

One of my Favorite Fictional Bookworms is Annabeth Chase from the Percy Jackson book series and Heroes of Olympus book series. I'm not sure if she appears in the Magnus Chase or Trials of Apollo book series since I haven't read them yet. Annabeth is a demigod who loves to learn and read which can be attributed to her mother being Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, War (Battle) and Craft.

She's a lifelong learner who has a big interest in architecture, history, philosophy and Greek mythology and read a lot about each topic. Her dream is to become an architect and she received an amazing opportunity to redesign Olympus after the home of the Gods was severely damaged. She now holds the title of Architect of Olympus.

At Camp Half-Blood, all the demigod campers/students are trained in the art of battle. It's a way to make sure they are prepared to fight and survive against the many mythical monsters that will attack them out in the world. The training is also to prepare them for any demigod quests they may be selected for as well.

Aside from all her training, Annabeth is extremely intelligent but is also very logical and rational which allows her to see the big picture and remain calm during a fight or in difficult situations. When she wasn't attending classes or training, Annabeth although a student herself, taught a class on Ancient Greek to the other students. Which was a pretty big deal because that meant she was so knowledgeable about the subject that she was given a chance to teach.

I like Annabeth, she may not have active powers as many of the other demigods like her boyfriend Percy Jackson but she uses her vast intelligence and combat skills to save the day.
