THANK YOU

Luke being in character. Ves and the Skywalkers trusting each other for once.

Also, I'm so glad Fala's potential as a character has occurred to someone other than me. I still haven't thought of a less pleasant way to find out you're Force-sensitive than having your mind turned into a dark side nexus by Abeloth.

I'd be extremely curious to hear what you have in mind about that.

Why on earth was haven’t I been rereading Conviction more often?

I’m just going through the most interesting parts of Conviction (ie, the ones with Vestara and the Skywalkers), and there’s just so much I forgot and it’s amazing and asdkjadkjafk

Luke actually acting Jedi-like and more in character instead of whatever the hell Denning was doing?? them all working together really well as a team? luke being protective of ben and vestara just looking on and getting really sad because her dad would never? (srsly just give him the worst parent of the year award already) Later though it turns out he lied to the other sith so they actually don’t know who killed taalon, to protect her, and she’s all confused. ves acting insulted at being called a jedi at the beginning of the book but not at the end, and her just constantly experiencing thoughts and feelings she’s not used to. There’s a lot more emphasis on vestara’s character development and growth than on any ~romance~, and we finally get to see a whole book of her and the skywalkers just trusting each other and being on the same side. Honestly this is literally the only book in the entire trilogy where there’s no massive betrayals or breaches of trust by her.

Obv other stuff is good too like Seha Dorvald existing and going on a mission and Tola Annax being really dramatic, and Fala showing up (i’m already planning this elaborate story in my head about what happened to her in the months after apocalypse), and the bits of the other plot lines I saw, but !!!

I just want to quote all of it. Sorry if this is really ramble-y and disjointed but in conclusion: GOOD BOOK. Or at least the parts that I read of it.
