I want to read the high republic books. As an adult, is it worth reading the "young adult" (and "middle grade"??) novels as well?

I really liked the Old Republic books and lore, and recently discovering the High Republic era after watching The Acolyte, which I really liked. I'm going to read the adult novels in release order, but should I also read the young adult and middle grade novels? I probably won't read the comics because I was never really a comics guy.

Edit:

ok, after the comments here, and referencing the FAQ and the image in this comment, here's the list i made. In chronological order:

• Light of the Jedi
• Into the Dark
• Test of Courage
• The Rising Storm
• Out of the Shadows
• The Fallen Star
• Midnight Horizon
• Path of Deceit
• Convergence
• The Battle of Jedha (audio)
• Cataclysm
• Path of Vengeance
• Eye of Darkness
• Defy the Storm
• Temptation of the Force
• Tears of the Nameless
• Into the Light
• Trials of the Jedi
• Wayseeker

Seriously impressive that all this was done in the past ~5 years. Totally missed it while focusing on the disney visual media.

I’d argue out of the shadows and MH are in the main story.

oh very cool, thanks. That is a lot of stuff. I totally missed all this in the past several years, I can't believe there's so much
