Pretty happy overall. Mainly because I've known for a long time that if the films were to ever continue past episode VI, that there was absolutely no way that the novels would or should be incorporated there. So I knew the EU was out of canon the second Episodes VII, VIII, and IX became a reality in progress. I had been prepared for the inevitability for a long time. Admittedly though, what helped dull any possible regret I might have over the EU no longer being "official", was that for me, after the Hand of Thrawn duology ending the Bantam era of books, I thought the EU went massively downhill really fast. I didn't like the new tone and direction the New Jedi Order gave the verse. I think I read the first 4 books in that series and that was it for me. I never read a new EU novel again.
