  1. Not all books have to be cats, we do like some other books, being a Warrior fan usually you like animal books, drama and adventure, a tad bit of romance, and drama, and plot that would only make sense after you read the twist.
    It doesn’t even have to be animal books but a reader can get bored of cats. Thanks for this list though! Here are ones I really like also: Foxcraft, The Land of Stories, (more of a kids book so if your in the younger part of warriors fandom then it’s a good series) Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and The Familiars
