Otway93 (580 KP) rated Star Wars: Queen's Shadow in Books
Dec 31, 2019 (Updated Dec 31, 2019)
All of this can be read on the blurb: basically her royal predecessor asked her to. That was basically it.
The book answers these questions rather pointlessly, and describes her relationship with her handmaidens. The book can therefore be summarised in a single sentence: She was very close with her royal handmaidens, and the next Queen asks her to be senator.
The book is incredibly slow, to the point you can no longer be bothered and just want to skip to the next part of the Star Wars canon, a few Age of Republic comics, which are shorter, but far more fun.
It's single redeeming feature is the inclusion of Captain Panaka, the character portrayed by Hugh Quarshie in the prequel trilogy, a rather underrated and underused character.

TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Miss Tavistock's Mistake (The Brides of Mayfair #1) in Books
Feb 23, 2021
Miss Tavistock was a great mix of personalities, pretty much one to match each of her “names” right until they all become one in a great character arch. She was witty, engaging, and made me smile. The Captain… Ooo… Where to start with him? He was a handsome dashing guy with a misunderstood personality right from the beginning. He grew throughout the story and finished as any Captain should. Rescuing his Damsel in distress. Truly a good cast of characters that I look forward to seeing in future books.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars for the engaging cast of characters, the interesting twists in the story, and the morals/themes in this book.
*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.
