Outlander

Summary: Un-put-downable!
Review: I read this book under it's Australian title "cross-stitch", and I loved it. Claire's journey into Jacobite Scotland is believable, as is her developing romance with Jamie. Being a stickler for historical accuracy, I was pleased that there were no glaringly obvious errors, yet it could in now way be called a boring historical recount. One to snuggle up with!

Summary: Diana Gabaldon is an amazing storyteller!
Review: Diana Gabaldon is my hero! Once you pick up Outlander, you'd better prepare to not be reading anything else until you've finished all 5 books. At the end of each book I had to immediately begin the next one as I couldn't wait to see what was awaiting Jamie & Claire! These 2 characters have become so real to me I can hear them in my head while driving to work... Diana Gabaldon writes so smoothly and richly that you end up deeply immersed in these novels without any notion of what is going on around you-you almost feel you are right there! And James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser is the sexiest, sweetest hero ever!

Summary: Excellent reading and a Wonderfully fulfilling love story!
Review: This is the absolute best book I have ever read! It is wonderfully written, and sweeps you away to 18th century Scotland. This book is impossible to put down! If you like this one, and I promise you will fall in love right with Claire and Jaimie, you will love the rest in the series!

Summary: What a fabulous read!
Review: This book is one of the most detailed fictional time-travel books I've ever read. I just couldn't put it down! At first I was a little hesitant starting the series. (The two-husband thing seemed a put-off) But after reading the glowing reviews on Amazon, I just had to buy the series. These books are now my all-time favorites. And now with the Firey Cross coming out, (the 5th book in the sereis) I get to continue this great time-travel journey with two of the most passionate, complex characters ever written. This is the first time I've ever considered writing a review about a book (or in this case, books). You won't be disappointed!

Summary: I LOVE Jamie Fraser!
Review: Not only does Gabaldon create a tremendous historic novel, but she also creates one of the best love stories I've ever read. Gabaldon's story brings us to Scotland and a mysterious ring of stones with even more mysterious powers. We find out a great deal about these amazing places throughout the book everything from faeries to clans brings the lore and people of historic Scotland to light. However, this is not even the best part of this amazing novel. Jamie Fraser is one of the best heros I've come to know in years. His strength, love for Claire, and soulfulness make him impossible to resist. Of course, I know he's only a figment of someone's imagination, but I LOVE Jamie Fraser.

Summary: You've got to read this book!
Review: If you love romance, then stop right here! The story of Jamie and Claire is the love story of love stories. I've read the whole series and can't wait for the new book, The Fiery Cross, to be released in November. I got my sister and all my friends so hooked on Jamie and Claire that we now have trouble getting interested in other books! Nothing else compares. This is truly the best book I've ever read, along with the rest of the series: Drums of Autumn, Voyager and Dragonfly in Amber. You've got to read these books - they are outstanding!

Summary: Wonderful! Everyone should read this!
Review: Right now I'm cursing my mom for giving me these books. As soon as I finished the first, I had to read the second (Dragonfly in Amber) and now that I'm done with the second, I have to read the third (Voyager). I'm a grad student, so it's not like I don't have plenty of other reading I should be doing. (I even promised myself that after I finished Dragonfly in Amber I'd read a school book before I started the next one. Well, now I don't think I can wait to find out what happens.) These books are absolutely fantastic -- romantic, exciting and touching, but please don't start them until you have time to finish all of them!

Summary: Just EXCELLENT
Review: I have read over 100 books in the past three years, yet have never written a review until now. This book is what gives meaning to good writing. The characters are multi dimensional they are funny, happy, sad and HUMAN. You can laugh and cry and completely relate to the story. I hope people will read this book and get as much pleasure as I have out of it.

Summary: The only romance novel I have ever read twice
Review: I cannot express how much I loved this book, and this series. I could not put it down. I even carried it in the car when I ran errands, and would read it in the parking lot before going into the store! Every time I left the book alone, I felt like the story was going on without me. I have never felt so involved with a story or its characters, and I have read thousands of books. All of us want to be Claire to somebody's Jamie, and I could not wait for each bit of their story to unfold. I started the series again yesterday, and will have it read in time for the fifth book to be released. I can't wait - it's like Christmas.
