Queen's Shadow by E.K. Johnston
4.0

**3.5 Stars Rounded Up**

I liked it. But I didn’t love it as much as I wished that I had. The book gave me a lot of insight into Sabe’s character, but not a lot into Padmé s. I did learn new information however. About the Star Wars world and the Alderaan family. The whole time I was sad reading the book. Because every time they talked about how much time they had together, I knew it would be cut short. Padmé could have done so much more. She was a good soul. A good queen, and a good politician. Especially when one considers how few and far between those are.

I’m curious what Sabé goes next, but I don’t know if I’m going to read the next book. Probably not.
