Into the Wild by Erin Hunter

Go to review page

got damn i forgot how much these cats fight

the first books i read were power of three and i went on from there; i never actually finished the first series :0 so this is my chance to look at them with fresh eyes as an adult after my very long obsession with warrior cats!

suffers a lot from 20 million characters dying For The Plot. writing is clunky but really shines in some parts. my favourite parts were reading the intro (paired with the entirety of SSS warrior cats embedded into my mind) and yellowfang's introduction. it's all very predictable now but when you're reading this as a ten year old you're like oh my god ....theres nothing like this in the world no one gets it.....and i'd be lying if i said i didn't still feel excited reading through this :]

being nonbinary but having gone on a very nonlinear path to figure myself out, this book put into words a lot of what i couldn't articulate. still collecting my thoughts on this since it was a bit of a dense read for me

couldnt stay engaged at least in this medium. this would be cool as some sort of branching narrative game that still retains the writing but also incorporates visual storytelling. sorry for being a Gamer

had much longer thoughts here. revising and omitting to say this book reminded me to have some childlike whimsy and imagination while reading
