From internationally bestselling author Benedict Wells, a sweeping novel of love and loss, and of the lives we never get to live " D]azzling storytelling...The End of Loneliness is both affecting and accomplished -- and eternal."--John Irving Jules Moreau's childhood is shattered after the sudden death of his parents. Enrolled in boarding school where he and his siblings, Marty and Liz, are forced to live apart, the once vivacious and fearless Jules retreats inward, preferring to live within his memories - until he meets Alva, a kindred soul caught in her own grief. Fifteen years pass and the siblings remain strangers to one another, bound by tragedy and struggling to recover the family they once were. Jules, still adrift, is anchored only by his desires to be a writer and to reunite with Alva, who turned her back on their friendship on the precipice of it becoming more. But, just as it seems they can make amends for time wasted, invisible forces - whether fate or chance - intervene. A kaleidoscopic family saga told through the fractured lives of the three Moreau siblings, alongside a faltering, recovering love story, The End of Loneliness is a stunning meditation on the power of our memories, of what can be lost and what can never be let go. With inimitable compassion and luminous, affecting prose, Benedict Wells contends with what it means to find a way through life, while never giving up hope you will find someone to go with you.Binding Type: Paperback

Great set of stories that ties in many of your favorite charecters
Format: Paperback
A simple yet great set of stories that tie in many of your favorite characters into the Galaxy's Edge/Baatu environment. I am not a huge comic reader, but I did very much enjoy. It is a quick read overall.

Probably not the greatest Star Wars story but entertaining and ties in nicely if you are visiting Disney’s Galaxy’s Edge

Nice backstory to Galaxy's Edge
Format: Paperback
This is a cool book. Just visited Galaxy's Edge recently, so it's fun to see the park and characters represented in comic form.

Great follow up to Empire Strikes Back
Format: Paperback
This series follows the events after Empire Strikes Back and I think it did a great job understanding the kind of realistic struggles the characters went through before Return of the Jedi. From Luke struggling to accept that Vader is his father, to Leia being heartbroken that Han Solo is frozen in carbonite. It was all very entertaining and I of course love the connectivity to other Star Wars stories as well. Great read.

Comic Book to help introduce Star Wars
Format: Paperback
Read this with my 6 yo son. He loved the art, loved the story, didn’t want to put it down. I felt like he was really engaged in this story because of the visuals. He wanted to know more about each character as they were introduced.
