The Warriors series.
Okay, cool, I liked it when I was seven. And it's a cool idea, cats and stuff. And I don't mean to be a book snob, but...
... it's ...
... terrible. Badly written, awful plots, just in general an all-out makes-me-cringe sort of a thing. You can like it if you want. But ugh, I just cannot deal with those books. I don't know what it is, the whole "oh the first seventeen thousand series were successful so I'm going to make eighty more", or the phrases and words you can find twice a page, like "padded over" or "ducked his head" or "flicked his tail" or "the light shined in his eyes" or "mischievous".
I don't hold anything again the people who like them. They can go ahead and do that. But personally, once the cats started seeing ghosts and having magical powers, I gave it up. And when the bears came- and now dogs...
I should be quiet now.


Bears? You mean beavers? :3
But, yeah, I agree. They were just amazing when I was like 7, but now I can see how terribly it's written.


Nope. Bears. I kid you not. xD

This.
So many people think I read it because of my name.
I just made up my name YEARS ago. Before I knew anything about Warriors. And the more I read about the books and how they are written, the more I don't like them.
Still, I'm not giving up my name. /shot
So full of hate were our eyes
That none of us could see
Our war would yield countless dead
But never victory
So let us cast arms aside
And like discard our wrath
Thou, in faith, will keep us safe
Whilst we find the path

I loved them when I was little, I can't stand them now.

ugh this a lot
and so many things are way overused in the series, the whole ~forbidden mates~ thing being an example. 
[but the seekers or bear series was completely different from warriors btw]

also i've found myself really wanting a cat pelt
but there's no way i'll ever be able to get one legally unless i find a road kill or naturally dead kitty [since i could never skin one of my own] and every dead cat you can find around here is either rendered flat and broken beyond repair or devoured within a night :/
