Book of Interest: The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens

I still have not seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens yet, maybe I'll make that my next Cookies and a Movie pick. Anyway, I was at the bookstore earlier today and was flipping through a few pages of this book, I couldn't stop looking at the artwork. It's so beautiful.

Why do I keep finding all the amazing art of books? This is another good one.
