    This thread will give me an excuse to start buying older Star Wars books just for the club. Look like I will be buying all three choices by this weekend!

    I've read all these books, they're ok, I don't get the major hype some people get over them, I prefer the movies and TCW, but these books are ok too.

    It's probably going to be more about the socializing than the books. Trust us, we will be taking the piss out of these books.

    I don't think you have to worry. I'm pretty sure it's impossible to replicate the amount of gifs and images in the social thread [face_rofl]

    To me, he expands the galaxy. Planets, species, history, minor details, of the galaxy, ties a lot of things together, made me realize the full scope of the end of the Clone Wars and the NJO series, etc. Has a fun writing style.

    I have never ever lovingly made fun of Star Wars in my life. It's not like, my thing, really.

    Curse school making me too busy for this! But I hope to join in the next book if there is one. Otherwise I'll probably just skim through the thread and see what people say about it

    So "do you start or do I?" Kidding. So am I meant to read the three chapters now and then talk about it or do them chapter by chapter?

    I haven't done this before.

    I guess we aren't supposed to discuss it until 1 today. I should probably search around for applicable images for quotes.
