As a Dean-class fanatic, I didn’t like it. It was good in parts, mediocre overall but really bad in others. However, what was even more disappointing was that the novelization – unlike Alan Dean Forster’s fantastic one for The Force Awakens (way better than the movie) and Alexander Freed’s excellent one for Rogue One (as that was a great movie, the book was even better) – was worse than the movie. I feel disappointed.
I like them, with, without, stale, fresh whatever. Delicious!
