DUNE! Loved it, had such a good time reading this. The world is so cool, and I love that the terminology is just kind of thrown at you while you read, and that there's different words for the same thing (? there's probably a better way to say that). I enjoyed seeing the story from the different perspectives, showing Paul's journey from various lenses. The characters were both not very fleshed out or three dimensional AND extremely easy for me to love and root for, for some reason. I was so invested in Paul and Jessica and Chani and everyone else, except the baron, who I hated and hated reading about. Can't wait to see the next movie and read the rest of the series!
