A review by wildmountainwolf
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon

5.0

I mean honestly, how can you not rate this first book 5 stars? It evoked wonderful Scottish nostalgia, kindled my burning fire of love for Jamie, made me appreciate book Claire much more than tv show Claire...Even without having seen past season 2 and read past the second book, I could almost say this first book is the best of the eight. What was also interesting was comparing how certain details were stretched and others condensed between the book and the first season of the show. I am especially grateful that certain events towards the end were condensed, even if I knew what was to happen.
