"Ben Solo had sought to abandon everything he had been, even casting aside his name. But Luke sensed that Kylo Ren was just a shell around the same broken boy he had tried so hard to reach."

It's hard to sum up my thoughts about this book. I mean, it was okay? I loved The Last Jedi from the first time I saw it. Yes, it was definitely a flawed movie, but I enjoy watching it and it's still one of my favourite movies to curl up and watch. This was a solid novelisation, and it added to the movie in ways that were definitely needed. It just didn't blow me away or anything. I don't think I'll write a full review for this one, mostly because I don't have a lot to say. The Last Jedi novelisation was, unsurprisingly, exactly what it says on the tin. I'm glad I read this, as it expands a little on the backgrounds of some characters who were side-lined by the movie trilogy, but overall it was just fine. If you loved The Last Jedi, or you want to read more about TLJ characters, or you want to be overcome with strong Ben Solo feelings, then this is a must read.
