<i> This is the story as Aphra's telling it, and she is nothing if not over the top </i>

I LOVED THIS BOOK. The gayest Star Wars book of my dreams!!
Top 5 of the year! 

The copy I read was the script from the audiobook and IT. WAS. BRILLIANT.

Aphra has got to be one of the best Star Wars characters to exist. She is funny, sarcastic, smart but also sad, lonely, and looking for validation (which was WAAAY too relatable for me). Aphra has no allegiance except for herself and her droids, and maybe a fellow grouchy archeologist.

So when she finds herself working alongside Darth Vader, Aphra isn't phased by their evil deeds, instead desperately wanting approval from the worst man in the galaxy. Throughout the story she will learn the difference between strong and weak, and meet some of our favorite Star Wars characters.

This book was also SO GAY. SO gay and casual and it made me smile. The relationship is both loving and caring as well as murderous and evil.

I just loved this book so freaking much.
