If you are considering this book, keep in mind it is not a novel. It is more like a combination of scrapbook and field guide that details the history of the rebellion against both the Empire and the First Order. It includes communications from characters like Mon Mothma and Bail Organa, news clippings and headlines from the Holonet, which was featured in the Clone Wars and Rebels animated series, and profiles on the various characters. It also has handwritten annotations from characters like Leia and Admiral Ackbar in the margins.
Because of the format, and the fact that it is under 200 pages, it is a very quick read and can easily be finished in a day or two. My only complaint is that some of the margin notes can be very hard to read, especially if you are at the point in life where you need reading glasses as the text is very small, and because it is supposed to be handwriting, it is not always very legible. Aside from that, however, it is worth checking out but not something most people are likely to read more than once.
