FYI: Just because the series is about cats, DOESN'T mean it's kiddie!

"YOU ARE FIRE, AND bạn WILL BLAZE THROUGH THE FOREST..." Bluestar--leader of ThunderClan--has been prophesied to guide her Clan to power in a time of great turmoil. But closely guarded secrets form the past haunt her every paw step, and dark shadows whisper in her ears. Will she protect her Clan? hoặc collapse under the weight of her desiny?


A selection from the book:

...Bluefur pushed herself onto her haunches and leaned against Oakheart, enjoying the smoothness of his pelt and the firmness of his muscles beneath. He still smelled a bit fishy, but his scent was overlaid with the tang of pines.
Oakheart sighed. "I've waited so many moons for this." He twisted his head and looked down into her eyes. "For you."
Bluefur dropped her gaze to her paws, sudenly feeling very self-conscious. Oakheart nuzzled her as she looked up at him.
"Every cat in my Clan's been telling me to get a mate," he murmured. "But I want no other mate but you."
"I know what bạn mean," Bluefur mewed. "Larksong told me I should pair off with..." She stopped, seeing hurt spark his gaze.
Oakheart leaned away. "Is there another cat who..."
"No," Bluefur mewed quickly. "Only..."
"Only what?"
"I've been raising Snowfur's kit. I haven't had time to think about mates."
"You've done a wonderful job. Your sister would be proud of you. But Whitestorm's a warrior now."
Oakheart pointed out. "You've got to live your own life."
"Maybe," Bluefur whispered. "But this can never happen."
"What?"
"Us."
"Why?" Hurt cracked Oakheart's mew.
Bluefur couldn't believe ir wasn't obvios. "We're from different Clans!" *And I have a destiny that doesn't leave room for a mate.*
Pain twisted her heart. She tried to push it away but it hung there like grief, cold and heavy. She pressed closer to Oakheart, and his warmth eased her sadness.
"If we carry on meeting like this," she murmured, "we'll end up bein hurt."
"The only thing that can hurt me," he breathed, "is being apart from you."...

How's that? I highly recommend this book.

Preface

“Okay honey, it’s your first time on a plane!” my mother cooed me. I was five then so I didn’t hate it entirely. “I’m ready Mommy!” I said. We sat in section… 1A and 1B.
My mother was overly excited for the both of us because it was also her first time on a plane.
After takeoff, my mother spotted San Diego, which was the wrong direction. We were going to visit my grandparents in Michigan. It felt like the plane was dropping all of a sudden.
“Mommy, are we going to land now?” I asked. “I’m going to go talk to the pilot honey. I’ll be right back.” My mother...

Mmkay, this is a really powerful-but really long- quote and I really hope bạn take just a few phút out of whatever you're doing and read it.

"I was telling bạn about evil, now that I know what it is. It's what makes a man get drunk and press a red hot poker on his child's back. It's what makes men have to queue for hours at the dock gates for a chance of a job when there are only a dozen jobs for a hundred men, so they fight each other in order to get them, and the foreman laugh and egg them on. It's what takes an old couple who've got nothing left but each other and splits them up to go...

FIRST part of the book series The children of the earth.

This novel of awesome beauty and power is a moving saga about people, relationships, and the boundaries of love.

The 100 Most Influential sách Ever Written: The History of Thought from Ancient Times to Today

I am bởi no means a great votary of any kind of "Best" lists and find them too subjective and at times highfalutin. But this danh sách of the 100 most influential & mind-expanding sách ever written seemed quite apposite and all-encompassing. British literary critic & historian Seymour-Smith's survey of what he considers the 100 most influential sách is a searching inquiry into major thinkers, writers and philosophers. Seymour-Smith finds most modernist techniques already...
