I couldn’t put it down. I am an Outlander fan through and through and feel so strange about getting to the end of the available books in the series. Book 10 is apparently coming, but not soon enough for me! I loved the intricate journeys and stories that this book took on. At some points the plots stretched from New York to Georgia and every place in between. As a history lover, I was enchanted by the level of detail and specificity. I learned things I never knew about the Revolutionary War. I also fell deeper in love with all of the characters of the book. This one is a nail biter for the last 150 pages especially!! What a great job Diana Gabaldon did weaving together the huge cast of characters in a way that made me equally invested in all of their stories. Makes me want to pick up the book and start all over again!

She’s done it again, ladies & gents 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 
I love every character, I loved every moment, and of course, she left us on a cliffhanger. 
I’m not sure how I’ll tide myself over until the next and “final” book!
