I heard that this is the book that made everyone rage against Tigerheartstar.
Right now, I like him, I'm sorry, but I don't think he's done anything super immoral yet, but who knows, maybe this book will change my opinion?

I loved that book. The clans are pretty antagonistic, though. But the Sisters were no better.

The worst thing I heard, is that Harestar was portrayed badly in it, but I still don't think he'll ever be as bad as that one cat who was leader before him. Like, he'd have to do some SERIOUSLY bad crap to reach his level

Me too, I just read the part where Leafstar tries to escape, and Snow (is that her name? I forgot) attacks her I also feel really bad for the males in that group

That's true That'd be interesting if one joined the clans, but from the way the clans treat non-clan cats, I'm not sure if that'd be the best thing for them

I'm on chapter 9, and I'm reallllly starting to dislike Thornclaw and Birchfall, which is a bit sad, because in the Power of Three, Birchfall was actually in my top five list of favorite characters.
I just learned that Sparkpelt was born first in her litter, which is kind of funny, because Hollyleaf was born first, and out of Sparkpelt's kits, Finchpaw was born first.
It seems like the she-cats in Firestar's line are just eager to see the world first lol.
It makes me wonder who was born first out of Ambernoon, Snowbush, and Dewnose

Yeah It said She purred, the memory washing away her fear. “Can you imagine his surprise when he arrived to find you already born and Alderheart on the way? Soo, I just remembered that they had two other siblings, so Alderheart is actually the second born, not the last born. I'm guessing Juniperkit was the last born, since he survived the shortest amount of time, I think.

I didn't like that, either. I mean, I understand that they're afraid that they might summon their clans to come drive them out, but they're living beings I felt sympathetic towards the Sisters honestly because that's exactly what happened when Leaf and Squirrel went home. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if they hadn't held them captive in the first place so ThunderClan *might* be slightly friendlier towards them. I do think the sisters are an interesting group of cats but I do think some things should have been changed about them. All and all, I still feel the sisters were in the right. They were defending land they were on first and an unborn litter of kits, the clans were just bullying them and being greedy to solve their own problems.

I liked the book tbh, but I feel like I'm more annoyed by the fandom's reaction to it tbh. Too much exaggeration.

sylveonThat is true ❅Maplefrost❅Yeah, Bramblestar doesn't seem to be as abusive as I heard people say he is. He's right to be upset, he has a whole clan to look after, not just Squirrelflight's feelings, and he never said he never wanted to have kits, or that he'd get on or find a new mate, Squirrelflight seems to be just letting her insecurities get in the way. I'm not saying he's a saint or anything, I just don't think he's that bad. The only time he's irritated me so far in this book, is him refusing to treat Sunrise, but in his mind, he has a really good reason for doing it, he wants the clans to be united, and at least he isn't been outright hostile like Thornclaw and Blossomfall. Also, Tigerstar...Tigerstar hasn't even APPEARED yet, and he's already being painted as a villain in this book.

Also, Tigerstar...Tigerstar hasn't even APPEARED yet, and he's already being painted as a villain in this book. Bramblestar isn't morally awful, he's just weak and unable to wield the power of a leader effectively. The fact that Tigerstar is living rent-free in his mind is an indictment of him as a leader. If he could make decisions on his own instead of faffing about, wringing his paws, and generally doing nothing, I think there'd be a little more respect for him. As is though, he sits on a fence so much that he's practically skewered. Tigerstar deserves every single bit of hate he gets quite frankly in upcoming chapters.

While I don't think he should have even been deputy in the first place, he hasn't done a bad job so far, he got his clan through the darkest of times, and he's the one who made the rule, that clans should stick together in times of need. However, it is a bit sad, how he's so afraid of what his little nephew will do, that he won't help a dying cat.

That rule has been an albatross hanging around his neck because of the way he's interpreted it. Bramblestar seems to interpret it as a clan demanding anything meaning that he must cede to them immediately. He did it with Violetkit and in this book he's constantly paralyzed by indecision because of it too. He has a whole of one good leadership moment in the entire book, the rest is classic overpromotioned intern behavior.

I wonder if he's afraid of getting under anyone's skin, because he's afraid that they're going to say he's like his father? I mean, I doubt it, but yeah. I think he might still be trying to live up to Firestar's legacy, or maybe he just doesn't have enough experience.
