Time for more Claudia Gray, and yes we will eventually cover all of her books. She's one of the best because her YA books don't really feel like the YA you've come to expect. Leia is 16, and go through her rite of passage to be recognized as the future queen of Alderaan. Along the way she gets into a lot of trouble, uncovers a dangerous secret about her parents, and grapples with what it means to be a rebel and a princess. We're starting our own mini "journey to star wars" here so stay tuned for more about the beginnings of the Rebel Alliance.

The Skywalker saga may be over, but there are enough books to keep Star Wars fans satisfied for years to come. Chad, Ryan, and Beth have started a series to keep you up to date on all the action. Join our book club as we run down the best that canon, legends, and comics have to offer.
