Star Wars: The Last Jedi by Jason Fry
3.0
Despite the HORRENDOUS amount of typos in this (from missing punctuation, to spelling errors, I even found an entire paragraph repeated on two pages), it was fun to read. I definitely enjoyed it more than the movie, because the movie took out just about every character building/developmental scene to make room for the action, and this book helped us actually connect with the characters emotions.
I was surprised (happily-ish) that there were so few sections from Kylo and Rey's point of views, as the movie, I felt, was clogged with with their stories, not allowing the other characters to have a turn to tell their own stories. I enjoyed all of the deleted scenes. To put it in perspective, I read about 60 pages into it before we reached the opening scene of the movie where Poe attacks the Supremacy above Crait.
That being said, the writing style was fantastic (much better than The Force Awakens novelization) and instead of just adding a bit of emotion and description to scenes like in TFA, Jason Fry actually wrote this as if it were a stand alone novel. The world was rich and vivid and developed, as were the characters. If it weren't for all the typos and errors, this would definitely have gotten a 4.5 stars.
