As if all the stress I'm dealing with isn't enough, I go and start my period.
Well, crippling pain, it's been a while, what are your plans this week?
Oh, you're going to stay with me? Yay... -_-;

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.

I'd never heard of the book until I started seeing the roleplays about it on CS.
At first, I wanted to read it and find out what it was about, because I couldn't figure out what the roleplays were about.
Before I read them, I actually joined one once I think, but the host yelled at me for coming up with an original and "not in the book" name. Apparently it didn't even sound like a warrior cats name so I just said screw it and never clicked on a warriors cats roleplay again.

But then I started seeing like a thousand roleplays, and the more and more roleplays about it that I see just made me not want to even pick the book up.
I just... It's so blown out of proportion. It's just as bad as the Twilight or Hunger Games roleplays on here. Just seeing all those roleplays about those two books/movies makes me wish I'd never actually read the books, because I want nothing to do with them...

@Warriors Discussion:
I've never read Warriors, but the entire concept makes me cringe. But on the writing note, I used to adore the Twilight books, and I read all of them so many times. Now that I've started to write (and write successfully) I realised Stephanie Meyer's writing style is actually pretty mediocre. Especially with the 'Short Second Life of Bree Tanner'. That book was horribly written.

I totally shouldn't be getting into this.
But we're going to have a save the whales moment.
Cat pelts?? My closet vegan side just winced. You could get some perfectly adorable fake fur coats almost anywhere xD

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]


I loved the first series. It was fresh, new, and really interesting. It had abit of mystery with the StarClan and such, but other than that, it was semi-realistic. Then they got superpowers and dead cats coming back and.. i just. Stopped. Id just rather pretend it got cut off at the end of Darkest Hour, and they all lived happily ever after. :I

But, cats are overpopulated anyway. It's not going to hurt anything. So, I mean...Yeah. I wouldn't want one myself, but I mean, the whole 'save the blahblahblah' thing is old.

Hot summer nights, mid July
When you and I were forever wild
The crazy days, city lights
The way you'd play with me like a child

Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me when I've got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?

Meh, yeah, but still. What did the cat ever do to you? xD
How exactly do you make a coat from one cat? Wouldn't it take several? I can't picture this...
