I like to put these on when I lie down for the night. Thanks for reading me a bedtime story!

Omg I laughed so hard when you brought up the prologue

I feel strongly that any movie adaptation of this book should have every character except Jass and Reza be muppets.

Ah there is so much I love about this video. Even my niggling concern that we were bullying the author by taking such joy in Jenny's reactions is addressed at the end. I'm a little worried that Jenny will follow in Carrie Fisher's footsteps and become a famous script doctor but won't be able to turn her hilarious hot takes on first drafts into entertaining videos for copyright / NDA reasons.

I'm glad this video ends with some kind words for the author and an encouragement for us to be nice. Jenny's learning to use her powers for good.

I do love the book reading videos, but this one is a bit of letdown coming so soon after the Trigger Warning video which was such a masterpiece. I still enjoyed this, just not as much as some of the past books.

Oh man, I've only watched the first 12 minutes or so, but the enthusiasm is contagious, nay, virulent!

Follow up on force bond: It was a major theory in reylo fandom pre-TLJ as far as I can tell, due to clues on the online database. So I hugely doubt it is a coincidence.

And when two people not only share a Force bond, but also love each other very much, they engage in Force bondage.

It's a snake storm! Also, not to sound nitpicky, but I had no idea some people pronounce "leverage" with a hard e. But the dictionary says both pronunciations are correct. I learned something new.

"Lee-verage," as in "Lee's Ghost."

I'm extremely confused. I'm at that bit in which we discover they are earthlings. Does that mean that "light withdraw" is actually vitamin D deficiency? Seems plausible.

It means the cliffs notes reference was foreshadowing? Or an accidental spoiler.

A lens can be distorting and opaque if viewed from the outside, like the mirrored lenses of a state trooper's sunglasses.

Yea, that metaphors still whack

Chelsea Clark · March 14, 2019

This was great. It super bums me out that people actually head on over to Amazon to blast the authors of books you review, though. What the heck.

Steve Ray · March 14, 2019

Word! I hate how the #1 hobby these days is being part of a lynch mob. Even if something is flawed or has a dissonant view, that doesn't mean it's evil, and it doesn't need to be attacked.

Idea: Patreon exclusive reading of the first chapter. But seriously, what a great find.

Sean Kelly · March 15, 2019

I started reading reading the first chapter and then had a sudden desire to wipe my phone and then set it on fire. Did enjoy the summary of the rest. With all its flaws writing a book is an accomplishment. The author desires a lot of credit.

I don’t know WHY I wanted to win that book so badly, but I really really did.

There's at least one live romance scene when Fighter Pilot is running around and comes to Rey's room, saying that Kylo didn't sleep in his bed last night, he just took off his one set of clothes* and vanished, and she's like, "OMG don't open that door!" --------- *Like on Gilligan's Island

Looks like my phone is listening to me watch this video. This is the targeted ad I just got: <a href="https://i.imgur.com/VsWslZy.png" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://i.imgur.com/VsWslZy.png</a>

Oh my goodness, these metaphors are killing me. “You’re like a lens...cap.” “Someone get these motha fuckin snakes off this motha fuckin star cruiser.” Title scroll was a nice touch, btw. And I feel I must note that between this book and the last, you’ve been fair in your critiques and analysis, unlike a lot of others who would have torn these stories to shreds and made a joke of them based solely upon their premises or reputations alone, which would be...like, I want to say...fallic? Fallacial?But that can’t be right. You point out the work’s strengths as well as making light of its weaknesses,which I admire, is what I’m saying. And that is why, Ms. Nicholson, I consider your readings to be so much more sophisticated, no matter how bad or good the quality of the writing might be. That shit’s legit classy and classy legit. I dig it. “Okay, this is not what the force is for, you guys.”

is that shirt a picture of Kylo Ren as a Sims 2 child

Steve Ray · March 14, 2019

I think it's Kylo on the left and Rey on the right, or else a Renaissance-royalty-style adaptation.

Was this published at 9:46pm? Yes. Is this video 1 hr 43 minutes and 20 seconds long? Yes. Am I going to stay up until 11:30 watching this even though I have to wake up early for work tomorrow? YES.

You use the word egregious several times at the beginning of this video. I will be very disappointed if a character named Darth Egregious doesn't show up at some point.
