Leia: Princess of Alderaan by Claudia Gray
3.0

- I didn't feel like the author captured Leia's character. When you write an iconic character like Leia, you need to nail her personality.

- The story was really slow. Leia was supposed to be proving herself worthy to be princess, but she spent a lot of time hiking with friends.

- I didn't like that Leia's parents were keeping the rebellion a secret from her. She is perfectly capable of handling the truth. I was so bugged, and I didn't feel like it was in Bail's character to hide that from Leia.

- I wish the story had covered more of the early days of the rebellion and Leia's role in that.
