Sunday Confessions #316

 

Welcome to this week’s Sunday Book Confessions, where I spill the tea on my latest reading highs, unexpected bookish thoughts, and the stories I can’t stop thinking about. Whether I’m falling for a new character, abandoning a hyped up title, or admitting I judged a book by its cover (again), this is where I lay it all out, no filters, just honest reader to reader talk. Let’s get into it.

This book offers a gritty dive into the criminal underworld of the Star Wars galaxy, centered around the mysterious and legendary Boba Fett. While the concept is compelling and the tone leans darker than most Expanded Universe novels, the execution felt uneven. The plot jumps around quite a bit, and the pacing often drags under layers of dense exposition. Fett is as ruthless and calculating as ever, but his character remains frustratingly distant. There are some exciting moments and cool lore connections, but overall, it didn't quite deliver the punch I was hoping for.
