...and just like that, friends, i knew 3 and a half years ago when i read it the first time that i was about to fall in love HARD.

"Use it sparingly, but if you can destroy them with it, don& #39;t hesitate. And don& #39;t get fancy. Take them down by any means possible." Such icy calculation. Purebread, undiluted warrior. She could almost feel the aggression pouring off him.

if rereading this book has shown me anything it& #39;s that THIS is how the dyad between ben and rey should& #39;ve been.

If a dyad makes people stronger, why was THIS not how palpatine met his end? Smh.

AND MY REREAD IS DONE.
4th time reading this book, and it literally never gets old. Somehow, every reread brings something new to love. These characters mean so much to me, it& #39;s comforting being around them.
I& #39;m excited to reread QoS at some point soon!
