Watching Episode 8 was hard enough knowing that it was the last time we would see Carrie Fisher on screen in her iconic role.
The upcoming novelisation looks set to break fans’ hearts all over again. The book isn’t out until the end of next week, but one fan has been live tweeting her reactions as she reads an advance copy.
Her comments about the General Leia storyline and they way it ends sounds absolutely heartbreaking and gives greater depth to the passing moments of Luke and his sister’s reaction.
WARNING SPOILERS
This refers to the final scenes of the Last Jedi when Luke tricks everyone and then fades into the Force. It clearly shows that Leia could sense her brother’s passing. It also reveals that Leia has finally given up on her son and is grieving what he has become.
