He said what?

As I closed the book...I am thinking to myself. You know, I cannot start ANOTHER book...until I figure out what JUST happened on the last page...has lasting results.

I mean. That WAS a cliffhanger. Now, obviously...I know that something happens in a positive light, since...since I know the history of Star Wars...BUT this was an amazing place to end the book.

I can understand Obi-Wan from kid...trying to be an adult...and standing on principles, but I also felt SO bad for Qui-Gon...for he really does love Obi-Wan.

If you do not know, these two characters are my favourite in all of Star Wars. That is why I'm actually reading this Middle Grade series. BUT, now that I am reading the series, I am learning SO much about their interactions and adventures.

Pulls on my heartstrings, for sure.

These books are short, like novella short, but they really DO pack a punch.

Very well written (so far).
