This book was a medium-paced read for me, not too fast but not too slow. I was able to finish the book within one night after picking it up the same day. It’s a beautiful book, with an intriguing and clever layout and illustrations on the pages, a great arrangement of the different facts being presented here so as to change it up once in a while instead of just being the same page layout with facts over and over again. The small illustrations are cute. It’s worth every cent spent on it, although many if not most of the facts I already knew or had heard before. It was interesting to hear the facts again to be presented for fans who may have not known them or know less than I did. Some of the facts were unknown to me though, and some of them were so unbelievable to me that I’m not sure if they’re true still, a day after reading the book. There was never a fact repeated and each fact had enough consistent backstory and explanation that you wouldn’t be lost if you hadn’t seen the Star Wars movies recently/was unable to replay their exact events in your mind. The ending was a bit blah to me, it just ended off with another simple fact and not even a goodbye message, it would’ve been nice to have led up to some super large or shocking fact or a send off message. I really enjoyed reading through the book, making quick and achievable progress, and was very happy to have received it as an Easter present. Well pleased, rating an A+. The 3.0 rating is only due to the fact that the book doesn’t appear to be one I will reread. I highly recommend this book for a casual read for any Star Wars fans.
