[colls]

Welcome to our fourth of four check-in and discussion posts for our Book of the Month.

This month’s book is The Princess and the Scoundrel by Beth Revis
Chapters 46-61

The Princess and the Scoundrel

1. Do you think the outcome bodes well for Madur's ability to remain independent?

2. Leia has been flirting with the Force a bit in this book - what are your thoughts of her relationship with the Force either in this book or overall in other books/movies/etc.?

3. Will either Han or Leia learn to use the new kitchen on board the Falcon, or will Chewbacca be the sole cook in the family?

4. Anything else?



FYI - There's no need to answer all (or any) of the questions above - they're just talking points to get us started. Informal chatter is more than welcome! In-person book clubs often veer off topic, it's okay if we do as well. :)

I did like how effectively Han and Leia work together in the field when there's an active danger to face, although I'm still amused at just how determined someone was to get rings into this book. How would you feel about this book if the most recent trilogy didn't exist, so the future was open-ended?

Without the events of the sequels, I think I would've been more hopeful for a lasting happily-ever-after instead of being practical (cynical?) and considering where they end up that it's clear they really didn't think this marriage thing through very well.
Which kind of ties to what you mention below about how seeing the thread from here to TFA makes you a bit melancholy. Same here. :/
