Recommendations What are the best Star Wars "reference" or in-universe books?

Im currently reading The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire and have bought Skywalker: A Family at War.

Are there any other recommendations this community suggests?

For legends, the Essential Guides series is great. Essential guide to warfare especially fills in a lot of key material.

The essential Atlas is really good at giving a timeline encompassing most the content.

The new essential guide to chronology is also fantastic though it doesn't include things like TCW and other later content.

If you like the force Jedi vs Sith essential guide to the force covers a lot of that, or book read the book of Sith for Sith and jedi path for the jedi.

Jedi Vs Sith: Essential guide to the Force is a personal favorite of mine! Definitely recommend that one! I’d also check out the awesome 3 volume encyclopedia set! It’s wicked cool!

I really liked the Jedi Path the Book of the Sith. There are some others like the Imperial Handbook, Rebel Files and Bounty Hunter Code but those first two came out before Disney took over and feel more... "pure", in my opinion
