Review of 'So You Want to Be a Jedi?' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I listened to this, and that could make it a different experience - but I loved this! I probably wouldn't like reading the second person point of view (the reader is Luke, basically), but hearing it, with Marc Thompson as narrator, and with the author's humor in between was just great. Like the first, this is targeted to the young adult set, it being a retelling of the Empire Strikes Back, with some differences in scenes, conversations and the like - and if you're so used to the movie from these 40 something years, it can be weird to see the differences, but it helps to add to the story, and it helps to teach lessons to anyone reading it. So definitely a pleasant experience! :)
