The Blazing Star by Erin Hunter This book talked about the hardships that the cats went through at their new home. It was told mainly from a 3rd-person limited point of view, from Thunder. Clear Sky tries to change for the better, and Gray Wing is stressed. It takes place in the cats’ old home, in the forest.
I liked this book. Some people might say it’s just another Warriors book, but I think that it deals with a lot of problems that humans in real life face as well. Heartbreak is hard to deal with, and this book deals with it quite well. I thought that it was really deep and philosophical sometimes.
I like that it switches point of views, but never the type of POV. For instance, it switches from Thunder to Gray Wing, but it’s always 3rd-person.

Random stuff about me:
* Favorite book: Hmmmm, this is hard, since it changes all the time as I read new stuff and depending on what mood I’m in. However, there is one book that I know will still make me snort with laughter even when I’m 80 years old — The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams.
* Favorite food: perfectly made toast
* Favorite band/music: Cake. I will never get enough Cake.
* Favorite reference question: Q: How long does it take the galaxy to rotate once? A: It’s called a galactic or cosmic year and it takes about 225-250 million earth years.
* Pets: I have two cats and a dog. Marcus and Grey are the cats who were rescued from a box in the woods when they were just little puffballs. When they are not acting insane, they are very sweet and purr loudly. My dog is named Peter and he's a medium size poodle mix (we call him the substandard poodle). He's got floppy ears, snores and loves green beans.
