I get that. You make a great point. I hated the death of Chewie but then Mara has to die?! I didn’t get around to NJO til after I was disgusted with Disney Star Wars. So by comparison it wasn’t as bad. I also recently bought some X-wing series, tales from the Jedi comics, and Jedi academy to get through.
Some of the short story compilations are pretty good. Tales from Jabba's Palace and a couple of the others. A lot of those stories don't tie into the greater narrative: they're just sort of slice-of-life snapshots of the Star Wars universe.
Another thing to look into is Brian Daley's Han Solo trilogy, telling some one-off stories about Han and Chewie in the years right before he meets Luke. Those were written back in the early 80s, right after the first film came out, and they were great.
Yes! I love both Solo Trilogies. I have Tales from Jabbas palace and Tales from the Empire but haven’t read them yet. I stupidly thought the movie Solo would use one of those trilogies as source material.
There's also another decent Han Solo-focused trilogy. Happens 20 years after Ep 6.

Also, the Rogue Squadron series, think it happens about 4-5 years after Ep 6 were great too.
