I read all the books back in 2011 and kept up to date following them and I've read em all at this point But I decided recently to re-read the books because it's been a while and I kinda 'forgot' what happened. I remember the 'general' plot, but not as much the small stuff
So atm, I'm on the first arc and I'm on book 5 and can I just say......Bluestar....
I don't remember her being like that...it's so surprising to me. Idk, I'm really enjoying re-reading the books but it is crazy how much I have forgotten, or maybe, how much I just missed out on when I first read it.
But re-reading, I wanna slap Bluestar across the face lol like I thought I really liked her....but now I'm just like ok we don't need you hear, Firestar, come on now take your place.....
BUT, also....how much of a focus it really has on 'Fireheart'...and why wasn't Whitestorm made deputy? I feel like Fireheart wasn't super fit yet. And also, why wasn't Fireheart sharing any of his dreams? It's like he has his dreams and they could be helpful for Bluster to hear, or Cinderpelt because they align with things they need to hear
Idk idk.
I'm enjoying re-reading though

ya, like i haven't gotten to that point yet but I'm really wondering how my perceptions will change on all the other characters lol like i absolutely love yellowfang but right now, I'm not feeling it as much...i feel like when i really fang in love with her though is with her super edition?
so idk i like when the cats have a transformation that make me fall in love with them...but i haven't felt that yet
I'm interested about blackstar though bc he is currently a fav of mine? but who knows by the end off this lol

exactly- that's what I'm realizing lol I've been wanting to do it for such a long time but i finally decided to lol i just remember it being so enjoyable the first time and it was so fun and happy and there was childlike innocence and i wanted that feeling back lol
honestly, it's probably true. besides, if they made whitestorm deputy, where would fireheart come in? i really am taking a liking to whitestorm's character tbh though. i think he has a really well built personality for what it's worth
ya, i agree- it almost feels like they are just like...omitting something that should be there. to me it's almost like...pointless? because i feel like its mentioned once but doesn't filter through the rest of the story- like it should be mentioned a little more and be a little more....written into the whole story

Is there anyone you like more after rereading the books? honestly at this point, whitestorm. although i didn't have too much of an opinion on him before other's are fairly neutral though i think i just have more that i 'don't' like as much not so much hate, but just not as much in love lol

yeah, funnily enough i enjoyed tigerstar 1 more the second time. his character was still evil, but bc i wasn't as hyper-focused on "HE'S BAD OMG BAD GUY" i could appreciate his ideas and plans. honestly, he's kind of a genius. he totally could've taken over the forest if he didn't get bloodclan involved/didn't get ko'd by scourge.

see, re-reading i was kinda like...skeptical i guess because i still had in my mind that he wasn't good? but now that (at this point where i am), he has taken over Shadowclan, I'm like wow...he has a softer side and I think he could genuinely have been good, but he was just ambitious. like he could really get things done and he wasn't afraid to which i think is something worth noting

(Oh and then like mousefur- I remember not liking her so much in the beginning but liking her as an elder so I’m waiting for that xD
But then longtail? Idk...I liked him as an elder but I don’t remember him being so annoying as a warrior tbh)

I've been doing a lot of rereading myself, and honestly, the only character I really care enough to keep up with is Hollyleaf, and she's gone now. The latest characters from OotS - AVoS were either bland or wasted potential.

Are you planning to read all of the main arcs then go back and do super editions, mangas, and DOTC?
When I reread the series, I go in chronological order, so I read Bluestar's Prophecy before I get to her mental breakdown in TPB.

turino; ya, i do plan to read them all. although, i hadn't given much thought to reading the super editions in chronological order. i suppose i should have but, ill probs just read them after tbh haha that way i can at least get through the arcs themselves
pixie; haha ya, i always wanna post over here but i felt like i didn't have much to contribute having not read the books in a while but now that i have....../rather am/. But ya, it is nice to reread them lol I find as I'm reading it I really want to get through them so I can get to the next to see what happened bc I'm waiting for the /milestones/ that I remember xD Like I need to know what led to it haha

Do you plan on reading Dawn of the Clans? It’s my favorite arc.

You're lucky that you can get through three books in a day. I would be lucky to read one in a day. xD
As for Bluestar ... she was ill. Not really rational. So I see no reason to want to slap her in the face.

Haha ya, I am just a reallly fast reader xD
But no ya, that is a very fair point. I’m on the next series again and I’m happy because Bluestar is Bluestar again I won’t lie...I actually cried when she died...
I also cried whenever whitestorm died
And it was weird
Bc warriors have never gotten me emotional like that before

Warriors makes me feel too much emotion, and that makes it hard to keep reading. Dx

You think Warriors is just some book series to read in your free time, but no, it’s a soap opera that you get addicted to. Can confirm. I've tried to break away and I still come back.
