I could not. This was so poorly written, and the format of short stories smooshed together didn't work for me. I couldn't picture a god damn thing because the book is 95% dialogue and I wasn't invested in anything. 

I read some reviews to get an idea of the what I'd be missing and honestly, reviewer summaries were more interesting than this book as a whole lol!

I also think the idea is cool (in terms of universe) but since this was one of the last EU books before Disney took over, it feels irrelevant even though I am here for the pre-Disney SW universe.

Anyway, don't bother reading this unless you like dry dialogue, horribly poorly written characters (especially the women) and no emotional impact of plot (what plot?) whatsoever.
