Currently reading The Vision of the Anointed by Thomas Sowell and the book I finished before it was Knellers Happy Campers by Edgar Kenet which is a short story that was adapted into a movie in like 06 called Wristcutters about a guy who kills himself and goes to an afterlife for all the people who committed suicide. I learned it was based on the short story so I found it for cheap and read it

Cool! Dune and the Hobbit were great! I despise Disney Star Wars and have been into the EU since I was 12. I have the first Bane book but haven’t read it yet. Earlier this year I was going through NJO and the last one I read was the Lando Adventures.
If you like classic EU content (Or "Legends" as it's now called), then I would recommend the Bane novels. I'm currently on the second one at the moment, and the first was enjoyable and works as a standalone story with a hook simply to continue the story without being a cliffhanger. Definitely an interesting look into the Dark Side where most stories focus on the Light Side.
Absolutely will get to it. I haven’t read much of the Old Republic era outside of a few comics I have but I’m looking forward to it. Disney was so dumb to wipe that out in favor of high republic
If I'm honest, I could excuse a minor wipe of the lore, but they should have just picked the best stories and kept them. Because the EU wasn't perfect, but there was a lot that should have been kept.
I get it’s their property now so I would’ve been happy with them having a separate continuity for both. Like let third parties continue to write in the EU continuity or do animated adaptations. My biggest annoyance is that they hire activists who hate Star Wars and they seem to think it’s a problem if a lot of men enjoy a hobby.
