Some points in the book felt a bit dated, but overall, this adaptation of Revenge of the Sith was probably even better than the movie. The lead-up to Anakin's fall to the dark side was far more believable in this book than in the movie, and each move that the characters made felt more natural.

Edit: This book has never once left my mind. The writing is beyond good. The story is ethereal. I can’t give it less than 5 stars at this point

A very charming (pun intended) look into the life of Tom, especially focused on his time working on the Harry Potter set. Although I enjoyed the whole book, it lacked a bit of focus. I wasn't sure what I was really supposed to get from this. It's cute, it's honest, and it's interesting, but it reads more like a collection of true stories than a memoir. I would still recommend this to anyone interested in Tom, Harry Potter, or child acting.
