I loved every part of this book from front to back. It is now in the top spot for my favourite book.
The development of the love between Claire and Jamie is so touching and is a huge part of the story. There is constant twists and turns that made sure I didn’t want to put the book down. I also loved the historical references that Diana Gabeldon has put a lot of time into researching about. She has created a brilliant depiction of 18th century Scottish Highlands. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!
