MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU
I knew this book was about Star Wars but when I woke up this morning, sick I wanted to read something during class, I tend to read during art class, and I wanted something short on my tablet anddddd I remembered that this book was short but I hard totally forgotten that A) It was about Star Wars and B) IT WAS MAY 4TH so it was all a happy coincidence
So the book really WAS short which is why I get to do the review on the same day xD
This is actually my first Rainbow Rowell story
STOP! I knooooowwwww I've heard it before!
I have a plan to read Fangirl this month as well soo... Im getting there! And I also have Eleanor and Park but haven't even opened it yet u.u
Shameful
So I really liked this one, I feel like I could relate to it a lot, not because I stood in line for The Force Awakens (I was sick) but because I HAVE been in line for movies, the one I stood/sat in line for the longest was either Breaking Dawn or The Hobbit, I can't remember which one xD
Point is, I've been to a lot (not DAYS before though) and so I really liked the story for that, because if you haven't been in line for a movie before you must know this, you DO kind of form a bond, for Breaking Dawn, well it was mid November, freezing, SO many people ! Like, it was insane, there are people with tents, blankets, buffets
Dead serious about the buffet, there was a family that brought huge platters of food and by the end of the night there was still a lot and she ended up sharing with my small group of peeps xD
People were signing, dancing, watching movies, freezing together and once inside, everyone was covered in blankets, taking pictures, drinking coffee and trying to stay up.
It is a heck of an experience.
Which is what I feel this was mostly about, about the experience of doing something extreme for something you love.
Even if in the end it doesn't work out the way you expect xD
The ending seriously made me crack up xD
Recommend it?
I mean, if you love/have stood in line for a movie, love star wars, cute short stories are your thing, then this is totally for you
Overall, I gave the book 5/5 stars.
