Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Title: Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Author: DiegoVIII

Genre: Fanfiction

Quick Summary: Review of a fanfic, not the movie.

Thoughts:

I tried. I really did. And I threw in the towel after the first chapter. 

The writing style is so stilted and awkward that it hurt to read. I very, very, very strongly encourage this author to pursue an editor to clean it up. The saving grace here is that it's readable and that the spelling is good, but that still doesn't help matters much. 

The other massive issue is that the first chapter was very long and very boring, and all the information is told to readers. We get a lot of things right off the bat, like Rey's past, and not much time to process it. "Oh, you were a Jedi trainee and your brother is Kylo Ren and some other Jedi wiped your memories" and she just takes it. Bonus points for telling us how she's supposed to be characterized. Don't just tell us she's supposed to be traumatized. Let us feel that trauma. And, preferably, don't have flashbacks/memory scenes that last half the chapter.

I think if these two glaring issues were fixed, the work would be on the way to something decent. But it really, really needs those issues fixed.
