Overview

Phoebe, who recently discovered she's a descendant of Nike (the goddess, not the shoe), is finding that supernatural powers come with a crazy learning curve. Her stepfather, headmaster of the Academy for descendants of the Greek gods, has enrolled her at Dynamotheos Development Camp - aka Goddess Boot Camp - with a bunch of ten-year-olds for the summer. Embarrassing as that is, hopefully it'll help her gain control over her powers in time to pass the test of the gods, continue training hard enough to qualify for the Pythian Games, and enjoy her godly boyfriend, Griffin, all while avoiding the ultimate mistake of accidentally misusing powers.

It's another fast-paced myth-inspired heroine's quest that's sure to bring out the goddess in anyone.

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
Gr 9 Up–In this sequel to Oh. My. Gods. (Dutton, 2008), Phoebe, a descendant of the Greek Goddess Nike, is sent to Goddess Boot Camp by her stepfather so that she can learn to control her magical powers, on which she will be tested. But Phoebe is in training for a marathon in the Pythian Games, her boyfriend may be cheating on her, and the other girls at camp are about 10 years old. Add the fact that her evil stepsister is a counselor, and life is worse than it might be in Hades. Phoebe’s inner thoughts and emotions are conveyed well, and readers will feel for her. The plot has many twists and turns and moves along nicely, and there are beautiful descriptions of the Greek islands. However, the novel falls short in the last few chapters, which wrap up the several plot threads too neatly and have a disappointing resolution. Nevertheless, those who enjoyed the first book will want to read this one.–Jennifer-Lynn Draper, Children’s Literature Consultant, Oshawa, Ontario
From The Critics
Phoebe has recently learned that she is a descendent of the goddess Nike, but as amazing as that sounds, it is also a huge responsibility. She must master her newfound powers or risk the wrath of the gods-literally. Her new stepfather enrolls her in Dynamotheos Development Camp, also known as Goddess Boot Camp, for the summer. While trying to avoid being thrown into Hades, Phoebe is also training to run the marathon at the Pythian Games and working to keep her romance with Griffin from imploding. This sequel to Oh. My. Gods. (2008) is as fun and fast-paced as the first installment. Even though Phoebe is dealing with drama of mythic proportions, her insecurity in her relationships and her conflicts with friends and enemies alike make her a realistic and empathetic heroine. Flat secondary characters and predictable plot twists only minimally detract from the light and clever story line, which, although clearly begging comparison to Percy Jackson, makes for ideal beach reading. (Fantasy. 12 & up)

    Cute

    I finished Goddess Boot Camp is an hour. It's good for anyone looking for a fun, easy read with action, drama, romance and adventure! Phoebe has good sense of humor and I was sad to see the story end. Xander was probably my fav character in the second book. Hope Tera writes another one!

    Cute book!

    I loved watching Phoebe grow as a goddess. And, Stella's study guide was very helpful for us non-goddesses.

    Thanks for a great book to read by the pool.

    more from this reviewer

    Reviewed by Jennifer Rummel for TeensReadToo.com

    Pheobe's having problems controlling her magical powers. Often, what she's thinking transforms in her everyday life.

    The gods aren't happy. She's scared they'll kill her on the spot (after what happened with her father).

    Damian enrolled her in Goddess Boot Camp before heading on his honeymoon. He forgot to tell her the average age of the campers before he left. Now, Pheobe's desperately trying to keep her powers under control in front of a bunch of 10-year-olds.

    She's also worried about passing a test from the gods, a possible cheating boyfriend, and her snarky stepsister.

    The addition of Pheobe's powers to the story adds humor as she struggles to control them. The sequel to OH. MY. GODS. continues its delightful magical, mythological tale.

    Eh....

    I found this book funny and witty, but the ending was really dissapointing and cheesy and dragged it down 2 stars. To my dissapointment, the ending was not the only part that was cheesy. However, other than that this book good.

    The book starts off slow. It takes a while to really get into it. But when it hits off you are sucked in and it is abbsolutly impossible to put down. It has something for eveyone, some teen drama, fantasy, commedy, mystery and romance. I am only 14 and i can sayy ii loveee this bookk! I ned to read for school and take test on everybook and i can say imma getta 100! Anywayy this book is sooo worth the money so enjoyy ! Also if you like this i would reccomend sweet 16 by kate brian. :) <3333333333333333

    I Also Recommend:

    Almost like Percy Jackson

    This is a very quick read. I used it for a report and it turned out great. Between phoebe's test drama and Griffin it all ties in great. Be warned that there are a few unanswered questions! This is an easy book but the content is probably for 5th grade plus. I read it when I was going into 6th grade. I loved this book. Girls who like Percy Jackson make way for Phoebe Castro.
