Tragedy. It happens. Just how bad it is is only changeable by how you react to it. One character, though, has reacted to tragedy in a terrible way. This character decided to change their personality and M.O. entirely. This character of course, is Bluestar reacting to Tigerclaw's treachery and attempt to kill her to become ThunderClan's leader. When the fire broke out around the forest, Bluestar only accepted the offer from Crookedstar to shelter ThunderClan for a few days, not giving them the proper time to recover. This is only furthered by her accusing StarClan of waging war against ThunderClan.
Bluestar does mot appear to be getting much better in her psyche at all, it would be wise to assume Bluestar's mental injuries are permanent. The only solution for something this bad is to wait her out until either these permanent injuries miraculously heal or she inevitably reaches the end of her lifespan. This is one of the more stressful parts of the series where the books arent as enjoyable because the relationship of Bluestar and her clan.
I think that you had good voice when you inserted your thoughts at the end of the last paragraph
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds very intense and interesting, though I wish you would have included the title. But overall you did a good job summarizing and using your voice.
