Starlight by Erin Hunter
3.0

3.5! I love these books. I loved seeing all the clans not only settle new territories, but struggle to separate into four clans again. I wonder if the rest of this arc will just be the sort of bad seeds causing trouble...less about clan rivalries.

It's always good to see spottedleaf!! And bluestar. I love learning more about the role of starclan in the four clans' lives and faiths. I sort of realized toward the end when starclan said it took them a while to travel there as well...it's more than just the cats' religion. Starclan really is also like the fifth clan.

Hawkfrost is really interesting in this book, and I enjoyed how much of a role he played. I always like how real-life/human problems show up in these books, like found family vs blood, and how some people judge others for the sins of their parents. I loved seeing tigerstar appear to brambleclaw and hawkfrost in a dream, and hope it comes up again! And if tigerstar isn't with starclan, is he sort of a rogue in the skies? It's all so interesting!! Lol.

I always love leafpool, but I'm def not behind this apparent romance with crowfeather. Meh. I'm also very much over squirrelflight and brambleclaw having their sort of teenage feud. Just when I think squirrelflight is maturing and brambleclaw is carving his own path, they're both set back in some way. Maybe I also don't like when cats have romantic relationship drama. They're good together, and it's really frustrating to see them arguing.

But! Still a good installment. I'm interested to see what comes of that eerie prophecy/message 😳
