Here’s how to read the Percy Jackson & The Olympians series in order:
  1. The Lightning Thief
  2. The Sea of Monsters
  3. The Titan’s Curse
  4. The Battle of the Labyrinth
  5. The Last Olympian
  6. The Chalice of the Gods
  7. Wrath of the Triple Goddess

Rick Riordan's series The Heroes of Olympus references Percy Jackson, though he doesn't appear in the books directly. Here's the reading order:
  1. The Lost Hero
  2. The Son of Neptune
  3. The Mark of Athena
  4. The House of Hades
  5. The Blood of Olympus

Characters from both Percy Jackson & The Olympians and The Heroes of Olympus, including Percy, appear in Riordan's The Trials of Apollo series. Here's how to read those books in order:
  1. The Hidden Oracle
  2. The Dark Prophecy
  3. The Burning Maze
  4. The Tyrant's Tomb
  5. The Tower of Nero

Percy also appears in The Sun and the Star, the first book in The Nico di Angelo Adventures series, which is a spinoff of The Trials of Apollo series.

There are some characters in the chalice of the gods and the wrath of the triple goddess that are mentioned in Heroes of Olympus, so you should prob read PJO 1-5, HoO, then PJO 6+7th
