We’re in the homestretch now. Only 3 books left in the main YA/adult timeline (not counting the two Black Spire books which we’ll also cover). Though this project isn’t quite over yet, the biggest chunk is behind me now, and I’m getting a little misty-eyed and nostalgic. Nostalgic for the history of the GFFA, even.Continue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Force Collector”

Today’s book is a milestone for a couple of reasons. It’s the first in this read through to star a Sequel Trilogy character (no Snap Wexley doesn’t count). It’s also the first of the canon books to be published post-TROS (and likely owes it’s existence to that movie, but I’ll get to that later). Teeeeeechnically,Continue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Poe Dameron: Free Fall”

It’s a bit bittersweet today. On the one hand, I get to dive into one of my absolute favourite canon Star Wars novels. But on the other hand, this is the last Claudia Gray book until the High Republic comes out in the new year. Of all the Star Wars books I’m covering here, thisContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Bloodline”

At last. At long last. No more galactic scale space fight for a while. After the two Alphabet Squadron books and the three Aftermath ones, it’s nice to have the universe give way to something smaller and more intimate. I was really looking forward to revisiting this book. I liked it well enough when IContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Last Shot”

Welcome, welcome, everyone to the darker (or, longer at any rate) middle chapter of the Aftermath series. Of all the books in the series, this is the one I remember the best, both in the interludes and in the main plot points. Can’t really say why that is but I bet it’s because it soContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Aftermath: Life Debt”

Well, kids. We’re here. We’ve transitioned out of the late Original Trilogy timeline and have moved into the early Sequel Trilogy timeline. I realize the next three books take place almost concurrently with the Alphabet Squadron trilogy, so why is it that I mark this as the transition period? While the Alphabet books, in myContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Aftermath”

What’s this? A book review coming out the same week the book was published? Shocking. I didn’t realize until I came to write this review how much I rely on having a written copy of whatever book I’m talking about to refer back to for everything from plot points to the spelling of characters names.Continue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Doctor Aphra”

We’ve hit a bit of a milestone today. This is the first series I’ve read for the Biweekly Book Review that is still ongoing. So when the book ended on a cliffhanger, naturally I screamed. It’ll be really interesting to revisit this chunk of the galaxy next year, when the third book comes out. InContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Shadow Fall”

Well, would you look at that? Another book that got DNF’d (this time only once). In fairness, I tried to read it at a point in my life where I was really preoccupied with other things, and it wound up taking me 2 months to get through the book on my second attempt. This isContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Alphabet Squadron”

When I first read this book last year, it didn’t leave much of an impression. I remembered that it was the only book featuring Luke Skywalker as more than a cameo, and I remember craving noodles while reading for some reason. But other than that I don’t remember enjoying it much. Well, I am hereContinue reading “Biweekly Book Review: Heir to the Jedi”
