I liked this book for these reasons. One, its Star Wars related and I am a big fan of Star Wars. Two, it gives me a look at the other side of the Star Wars story that I haven't seen much of. Three, it has good imagery and word use. Four, its a light read so it didn't take me long to read. To conclude, I like this book because its Star Wars related, its give you a different look at the Star Wars story, it has good imagery and word choice, and it was a good light read.
