A review by jessdrafahl
Star Wars: The Force Awakens by Alan Dean Foster
3.0
The good: I like the way that Rey was written here. Her disposition and internal monologue made sense: she’s a scrapper who has been thrown into a galactic conflict within a day - of course she doesn’t care about the Force or the Jedi. I liked that aspect of her character and I think it would have been so much more interesting had the story focused more on that.
The bad: the writing here is dry. There’s nothing much here that you haven’t already seen in the movies. Even then, there’s no excitement in the writing. The scenes skip to and fro without much thought. I found it really hard to get invested in anything when it didn’t feel like the author cared much, either.
