If You Like Star Wars and Book Clubs, Then This is the Post for You

I’m posting a lot about Star Wars today because today is May the 4th and I don’t know if you’re aware of it or not but that means today is Star Wars day. However, I’ve found that the Star Wars posts are generally well received so I might begin to post more of my thoughts on some of the novels I read and other important news as it comes along.

In that spirit, this post is pretty much just a plug for something I really enjoy that is Star Wars related.

If you are a fan of Star Wars, specifically the novels, I would like to take this Star Wars Day to make a recommendation.
