Learning more about Brooke was… interesting. I never really cared for this character much, but I wanted the opportunity to find out more about her past so I picked up this novella. What I learned was that she’s very confused, emotionally. I’m not sure it really helped me to empathize with her any more than before. Maybe it wasn’t supposed to, but I’m not sure what it was supposed to do then. Most of the events seemed unnecessary, except for one that almost seemed too canon to be included in a supposedly optional novella. I guess I’m kinda undecided on this one. Take it or leave. I’m hoping the suspiciously-canon scene is explained well enough in Into the Still Blue that reading Brooke isn’t required.
