I remember watching a documentary about someone like Luke. I was so distracted by this memory the whole time I was reading the book that I was less tapped into it than I might’ve been. So I found myself not really loving this one, but more could I find a lot of fault with it.

I’ve had hundreds of moments like this, when I run across something so incredible that I want to show it to someone else. The problem is, when you make the choice to be a loner, you lose that privilege.
This is a very compelling story to read and the pacing is really well done. In the beginning, the flaws of each character were frustrating to get through, but as we get to know them better their perspectives are all relatable. I was worried the wedge would just keep getting driven in, but the resolutions are satisfying.
