I know that a few of us recently bought this book, so thought I'd start a thread for us to talk about how we're liking it. The book is set 6 years before The Force Awakens, and focuses on Princess Leia.
Here's the wookieepedia page about it: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Bloodline_(novel)
An entire generation has prospered during an era of peace. The New
Republic, governed by the Galactic Senate, has held power for more
than two decades. The wars that divided the galaxy are fading into
legend.
Yet conflict has begun to take shape within the Senate. In the ab-
sence of MON MOTHMA, former leader of the Rebellion and first
chancellor of the New Republic, two unofficial but powerful factions
have formed—the POPULISTS, who believe individual planets
should retain almost all authority, and the CENTRISTS, who favor a
stronger galactic government and a more powerful military.
Only the greatest heroes of the war are still honored by all. A cer-
emony honoring the memory of BAIL ORGANA has drawn the Sen-
ate together in rare harmony. It is a day of celebration, but even now,
the divisions among the worlds of the galaxy are growing wider....
