Today the SibNerds are talking about Chapters 9 - 11! We finished up part 2 and started part 3 of the book! We definitely hit a slower-paced section with this week—falling action and what we’re sure is a steady ramp up into the next part of the story. Despite it being slower, it was full of familiar faces, which was quite fun! Next time we’ll be discussing Chapters 12 - 14! Happy Reading!

Part 3 | Star Wars: Queen’s Shadow
Today the SibNerds are talking about Chapters 7 & 8! This week we get our first exposure to Padme in the Senate—and it doesn’t go at all how she anticipated. She’s overwhelmed and incredibly human. We also get to see Sabe take on slavery on Tatooine—and again, it doesn’t go as smoothly as our heroes hoped. But she’s putting in the work, and we love her. Next time we’ll be discussing Chapters 9 - 11! Happy Reading!

Part 2 | Star Wars: Queen’s Shadow
Today the SibNerds are talking about Chapters 4 - 6! Well, it didn’t take long for Padme’s plans to be sidelined by a position in the Galactic Senate! We were surprised, but not in a bad way! Also, malfunctioning droids leading to assassination attempts? Sounds like Star Wars to us! Next time we’ll be discussing Chapters 7 & 8! Happy Reading!

Part 1 | Star Wars: Queen’s Shadow
Today the SibNerds are talking about Chapters Prologue - 3! It feels appropriate to be starting a new Read Along in May with a Star Wars novel! There’s been some exciting developments in the Star Wars universe, and it’s fun to dip our toes into one of the newer novels as well. These first few chapters are really setting the stage for Padme’s transition from Queen to Senator of Naboo—and we’re excited to be along for the journey. Next time we’ll be discussing Chapters 4 - 6! Happy Reading!
