Owl non-fiction time.
I've seen the movie based on this non-fiction book, but not the actual source material itself. So let's take a peek. This review contains brief mentions of racism and animal death.
Note:
The title of this book has been translated into English by me for the
reading comprehension of this blog's viewers as the book itself isn't
available in English (yet). The original title reads In de machts van de wolfheks.
For once, the reason I'm revisiting this book is not because it's about wolves. I actually read this book only once before as a kid, and for whatever reason it left a huge impact on me. I thought it was genuinely one of the most exciting books I read back then. And I mean it when I say I was young. This was way before I got into Warriors at age twelve, for example. I think I was like nine or ten years old at the latest when I got into this.
Ah well, now that I managed to obtain a ridiculously cheap second-hand copy of the book (apparently it's not being published anymore these days) I can take a look at it. Does it hold up? Spoilers ahead.

Dutch history non-fiction is not something I usually tackle. However, since this one very much had to do with the Rotterdam Zoo and I do have a huge interest in animals, I did pick it up. It was honestly way darker than I expected, so content warnings for war, racism, antisemitism and animal death/suffering apply in this review and for the book itself.
You ever wanted to re-experience a bunch of Warriors books from the POV of Onestar? Yeah, me neither. But we get it anyways. Spoilers ahead.

A non-fiction book I've wanted to read for a while now!
I have been meaning to pick this one up eventually ever since I first saw it in stores, however never ended up doing so. But now that I have my handy library card I can just borrow the entire trilogy! So expect reviews for the next few books as well in due time. Spoilers ahead.
Something a little different from what I usually read, but I was very interested when I read the synopsis. Spoilers ahead.
Who has two thumbs and is now all-caught up to the Dogs of the Spires series at the time of writing this review? That's me. I do still have the spinoff Misty and Vernin to go through, but I'm finally at the current releases with the main series. Bit late, but better late than never. Let's delve into the midway-point of arc two, shall we. Spoilers ahead.
