When Padmé Naberrie, "Queen Amidala" of Naboo, steps down from her position, she is asked by the newly-elected queen to become Naboo's representative in the Galactic Senate. Padmé is unsure about taking on the new role, but cannot turn down the request to serve her people. Together with her most loyal handmaidens, Padmé must figure out how to navigate the treacherous waters of politics and forge a new identity beyond the queen's shadow.

I love Padmè Amidala but this book was boring. It would've been better if Anakin would've been mentioned more because everyone I know loves there relationship. They did clovis a little too dirty in this and E.K. always seems sexist in her novels, she needs to realize that Men buy and read her books to and there's men who love Padmè (not just females). I'm only excited for the third novel, where we get to hear about Anakin and Padmè more.

it was interesting info on padmé's backstory from queen to senator but the book just wasn't all that interesting. I could have continued star wars canon without ever having read this book and I wouldn't have missed anything important.

I love this book and I kind of don't really do much star wars.But right now I might just do more of it.
About the author
E.K. Johnston had several jobs and one vocation before she became a published writer. If she's learned anything, it's that things turn out weird sometimes, and there's not a lot you can do about it. Well, that and how to muscle through awkward fanfic because it's about a pairing she likes.
