Done! Qi'ra's ending felt more right in the book. Han and Beckett feels very archetypal. I feel like Chewie gets lost towards the end. Lando and L3 were heartbreaking. The Enfys epilogue was a brilliant way to tie together even more of the franchise. I need more Enfys content.

The L3 - Qi'ra chat extension really pays off. Lando really syncs with how he's written in Last Shot. Beckett feels less still than in earlier chapters, as his character is more background now. Also, Lando's poor personal products!

RIP Val & Rio. The train heist was really well written, preserving the tendon and frenetic pace of the film. Val's memories helped books her character more, but still seem insufficient. Is like some more Rio insight too.

I enjoyed the expanded bits in the first part, which made Qi'ra more consistent and did some good world building. Han as an imperial pilot, and general imperial perspectives on Correllia were also nice. Tag and Bink are canon!
