Leia: Princess of Alderaan by Claudia Gray

---

I just can't deal with this portrayal of my beautiful space doctor general princess. I can't buy that even at 16 she doesn't see through the "dinner parties". I'm angry at Bail and Breha for not giving her more information. She doesn't need to know exactly what's going on, but she needs to know they're working on things behind the scenes. I did really enjoy the mountaineering session. But even then, the reason she stayed behind was because it was RIGHT, not because she was a princess or because the royalty on Alderaan actually does put their people first instead of just talking about it.
