I had mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, it's a great character exploration of Han and Leia and I had fun, on the other, the plot is an absolute drag.

Starting right after the battle of Endor, we follow Han and Leia tying the knot (in a magical and beautifully written scene) and being coerced into a honeymoon marketing the Rebellion victory. (It is, also, marketing for the short-lived Disney Star Wars Hotel)

While some descriptions of the Halcyon get a little silly, like Han talking for a whole page about the great showers, the section in the ship really highlighted their dynamic: Han is still suffering from PTSD from his year in carbonite and insecure about his place in a future where his wife is forever in politics, while Leia struggles with the knowledge that Darth Vader was her father and can't keep her head out of work even during her honeymoon.

The meat of the plot, though, only kicks in during the last third of the book and is unnecessary considering how generic it is.

Leia pulls a Karen and deceives the ship's Captain to change ALL of the passengers itinerary because she wants to make a political connection, then they meet a Empire remnant drilling the planet to destruction, investigate, save the day at the last second, the end

.

Regardless of this, Leia and Han's bantering and talking is fun enough on its own and I love that we got another tidbit of them.
