Welcome to Litsy!

This was 4 stories that take place on Catonica, mostly in the Canto Bight Casino. The stories are ridiculous (read stupid) but are still enjoyable, especially the first and last ones.

I finally finished this pick for the Star Wars Buddy read from a couple months ago. I ended up enjoying that this was a collection of 4 stories that had a couple character crossovers between stories. None of the stories blew me away but they were better than the scene in The Last Jedi.. @Riveted_Reader_Melissa

I enjoyed this one, but I‘ll be honest, the short story books always take awhile for me to get through. I read one, then set it down for a long time...read another. But I enjoyed all of these, and honestly I think they got better as they went, each story a bit better than the one before, and although the first story was probably my least favorite, I found myself smiling as the last story wrapped back around to that one. 😉

Do or Do Not, There is No Try

The audio book is awesome! Really, really well done and you get the whole Star Wars feeling with it. Even though I liked all the stories I guess my favourites were “Rules of the Game“ and “Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing“.

Its started off poorly, with a predictable story, but the stories of Canto Bight got better with each tale, ending with John Jackson Miller's funny and engaging story, "The Ride". 3 ??? 1/2 out of 5.

Won this in a contest hosted by some awesome fellow podcasters from Book Wars Pod (books + Star Wars) 😍

A collection of 4 short stories about Canto Bight, the gambling planet we meet on The last Jedi. Not my favorite star wars canon book but still an enjoyable listen ⭐️⭐️⭐️

More Star Wars audio fun! I loved the scenes in The Last Jedi that took place in Canto Bight. It was such an interesting planet and City with such characters! This collection did not disappoint. I loved all the stories and hearing how they connected. It was a treat to hear from parts of the Star Wars universe unrelated to the characters we usually hear about. Also the audio was of course wonderful- the voices were great!

Feeling optimistic about my reading this month 😁

Starting Canto Bight today!!!

Just finished my 1000 piece Star Wars puzzle! (while reading a star wars book and wearing a star wars shirt lol😆)
Fun, fast paced short stories set in the Star Wars universe ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I'm not super familiar with these authors but my favorite was either the one by Mira Grant or Rae Carson
#starwars #thelastjedi #saturday

It seems I'm in the minority here, but I had fun with this novella collection. I enjoyed all four stories, and I LOVED Grant's offering about a wine sale gone wrong. The audio production was as entertaining as always, too.

One wider worldbuilding quibble: it seems the llama-cats from THE LAST JEDI are actually called something that sounds like faviers (or fabiers, or falliers, depending on the narrator's delivery). Hmpf. Llama-cats is WAY better.

I needed a break from reading with my eyes, so I put my audiobook on, fried up some sausages, and braised some kale with a whole lot of garlic. It was delish. #audiocooking

Last night I dipped leftover fried chicken in makhani sauce, and it was so good that I went ahead and made full on butter chicken waffles tonight, with a salad and some sausages I bought on a whim today. It ended up being a LOT of food, so I've saved one of the sausages for breakfast and put about half the salad in a Tupperware. #audiocooking

Brief break to read a story in this collection.

TBT to two weeks ago when I was reading Star Wars stories on a cruise ship in the Caribbean instead of on the internet waiting for work to end

I was sent home sick today. So now I'm doing some comfort reading by picking back up some Star Wars reads that had been on hold for a while.

HappyNational Sci-Fi Day! What are you reading today?

Saw The Last Jedi last night, and then picked up some reading for the holidays. Very excited to find out more about Canto Bight 🎰🎰🎰

I‘ll start reading this after I finish The Dark Lake.
