Star Wars: Tatooine Ghost by Troy Denning
5.0
When I found out this was a Han/Leia book, I knew I had to read it. There are some things to be said about the main plot and the many complications that arise, but you can (I could) ignore them and just enjoy the ride; it's a nice adventure anyway.
I liked that it ties in with the Thrawn trilogy, which follows later in the timeline; I did not like that it considers the events of "The Courtship of Princess Leia". Admittedly, I haven't read it; however, the plot seems preposterous just like the bits I've read of it. I just can't reconcile the Han and Leia I see here with the Han and Leia I've glimpsed in what I've found about "The Courtship of Princess Leia". I understand that it was accepted into the EU and therefore it must have felt like a duty to include it here, but no thank you.
I did enjoy that it's linked with the prequels for Leia to discover more about Anakin's past. Shmi leaving a diary seems a bit far-fetched and too convenient, but it's nonetheless a nice excuse for Leia to see her grandmother.
Finally, her relationship with Han--what drew me to read this in the first place--is portrayed brilliantly and I loved everything about it, including the implied sex scene.
