Deserves one star. Red star that is.

Follett's reinterpretation of history is embarrassing. His leftist sympathies come out roaring toward the end of the story and make the "Edge of Eternity" hackneyed, leftist drivel.  I'm sure Jane Fonda will approve. This was the last Follett's book I will ever read.

There should be a "no stars" option. I started this film but quit it after only a few minutes so I cannot really rate it. And, I'm sorry that one star was my only logical option.

What looked like a super star turned out to be a half a star. Let me explain. The color is not mint, it is aqua and not what I wanted. The quality. Trash. The strap was literally ribbon and not leather. Plus it was dark blue not mint. I can't even wear the strap it is that much of an eyesore. If I could do it all over again. I certainly will not. Highly unrecommended.

Too bad one star is the lowest rating available - it deserves a
-5 rating. I read this book several years ago and still feel the fury of its trite silliness and warped view of Spanish/Mexican relations with the Native American.  I keep it only to demonstrate that irresponsible writing about this era still exists.  The shallowness of her research is reflected in the shallowness of her story.  Who is this misguided yenta, this annionted one who assumes that her "whiteness" can bring the abused Indian together with the meanie Spanish?  Words don't exist that adequately describe her cavalier attitude.  This is the type of book Dorothy Parker had reviewed and wrote "This book should not be easily put down, it should be thrown against the wall with great force."

Believe it or not, I finished this book. Just now. As it so infuriated and disappointed me, I elected to break my own rule and warn others off of this horrible piece of work.
Where do I begin? The writing style is crap. It's what kept me from being immersed in the story. Who the heck writes in the present tense anyway? It's not Star Wars.
 I'm not a bigot, but why on earth include LGBT characters in a way that has no impact and makes no difference to the story? Furthermore, I resent being called an "Imperial" for voicing my concern. I'm not an Imperial because your book sucks. Get over yourself. Self righteous buffoon.
Title is a bit misleading. We only get about a half a dozen looks at how the Universe is shaping up after the destruction of the Death Star. Otherwise, we're stuck on a godforsaken planet with a bunch of characters no one cares about because they're so poorly written.
Which brings me to my final point: what the heck was Wendig smoking when he wrote Wedge? I want some, whatever it was. One of the most beloved characters in the EU and one of my personal favorites, he was portrayed as cool, intelligent, and humorous in every other novel he's been in. In this one he's basically a potato. Except when he's being a master ninja with an invisibility serum and sneaking onboard a Star Destroyer. Unacceptable.

So. Lucasfilm. This is what it's come to. We've thrown out great novels such as The Republic Commando series from Karen Travis for this? Such as Timothy Zahns Thrawn Trilogy, for this?! Aalston's and Stackpole's Xwing series, FOR THIS?!

You have but one recourse. Throw out the old canon if you must. I understand the reasoning behind it. But bring back familiar writers such as Stackpole, Traviss, Denning, Zahn, Aalston and the like. Those authors were skilled, engaging writers of the EU, and their work kept Star Wars alive in the long dark between the movies. In complete contrast to this book, I found "Lost Stars" to be one of the better EU works I've read. I still have high hopes for both the new EU, and the new films. Please do not let us, your fans, down.

Sincerely,
A loyal fan.

This product should be taken off of Amazon for life.  ONE star for $15 is absurd.  Please stop misleading poor unsuspecting customers with the product number/description.  "9133-70 Unfinished Wood Star...." does not mean there are 70 wooden stars in the package.  There was literally....ONE.  We are now short for the project we have scheduled for tomorrow.  Thanks for nothing.

I wouldn't even give this review 1 star, it deserves 0.

I choose one star, just so I can review it. Otherwise, I wouldn't waste the star. If you have a toddler who wants to play with a camera, this is your cheap answer.  I would have returned it, but it was funnier to take it apart . You get what you pay for.

I should have heeded the 74 1-star reviews.  I bought the Sunset Red in May 2014; the color runs/bleeds profusely every time I wring it out.  I'm not using it, concerned that it will discolor my clothes and the chemical dye on my skin.

If I can put a 1/2 of 1 star, then I would. Wasted money purchasing this.

Stunned by the positive reviews on this novel.  There is nothing "well-written" about it.  The plot is one-dimensional and paper thin, and could only be interesting to the simpletons characterized in this story.  They are over-the-top caricatures, prone to juvenile behavior, crass and idiotic conversations and general stupidity.  The heroine especially comes off as exceptionally immature in both her speech and her behavior.  One has difficulty believing she graduated from eighth grade, let alone veterinary school.  There is very little that rings true or believable in this story, it's just plain silly.  I have a headache from rolling my eyes and shaking my head in disgust.  Save yourself .99 and two aspirin and don't bother with this one.

If one star was an option, it would get it. Horrible movie. Books are better.

I was sorely disappointed - in every phase of this purchase. Why one star? Because there wasn't an option for "No Star."

Is there anything lower than 1 star? Awful start to finish. Started terrible and went downhill. Good thing I was busy doing something worthwhile.

If I could give this a 1/2 star I would. I cannot believe they are charging $40 for this hunk of junk. I have included pictures with my review to show where I believe the manufacturers or this star have completely dropped the ball. If I wanted a one sided star made with scratched up mirrored paper and held together with ZIP TIES. I could have made it myself. Save yourself the money and disappointment. This will be sent back ASAP.

If I could give a half star I would. Not worth a watch, believe me.

This isn't even worthy of a star.  Absolutely not worth the purchase price.

If only I could give it zero stars.  Read my review of Episode I, if you want more info.
