The writing is 'eh' but I love this movie too much not to give it at least three stars.

Without question I love the movie, but the novalization was sadly not as good. It was super detailed and long in the beginning and super rushed in the end.

Hey, I wrote a review for this!

"What Foster does in his novelization of 'Force Awakens' is take the breakneck pace of the two-hour-plus film and slow it down to a more suitable pace for verse. It is still a quick read but it now has layers that the film did not have, including additional character insight and missing scenes."

You can read my complete review of the Star Wars TFA novelization at the Current student newspaper website.

I'm gonna be honest here. I've only skimmed this book. Because I am a Poe Dameron junkie and I NEEDED to know how he got off of Jakku, okay? It was important to me :) I do intend to go back and read this book more thoroughly in the future, for fic writing purposes, but for now... yeah... Poe Dameron ;P

HOnestly there were parts in the book I would've loved to have seen in the film, so I like it for that alone. Also FinnRey forever because she was straight up ready to die with him at the end my dumb kids ;____;
