Am I alone in Star Wars books being the only thing in the franchise I really care about anymore?
Some background. I grew up watching the original trilogy countless times as a kid, to the point where I could practically quote all 3 movies word for word. I saw the special editions in theaters in 1997, saw all the prequels in theaters, and have seen all the Disney films in theaters.
But it really feels to me like I can't consume any piece of Star Wars media and really feel like a fan still. Movies, TV shows, even video games. Even watching the original trilogy just doesn't do it for me.
But, the books are the one exception. I haven't read any of the new canon books yet, just EU books, but everytime I read one, I still feel like a fan. I just started another read through of Hard Contact, which Republic Commando is my favorite Star Wars book series, and immediately I started feeling like a fan again, something none of the other pieces of Star Wars media have been able to do.
Anyone else feel like the books are all that's really keeping your fandom going?
