I'm having a BIG problem believing that NOBODY ever suspected her IDENTICAL TWIN SISTER of impersonating her with Vin. Impersonating each other is a trick that most twins excel at so why didn't it occur to anyone? Seriously?

I'm sooo mad that there is so little of Jamie & Claire in this. I don't really CARE about LJG or William. Least favorite of all OL books.

BJR rears his ugly head again!

And FINALLY Claire tells Jaimie that Laoghaire tried to kill her. His response:
“The wicked wee bitch!” he said, sounding more astonished than anything else. “No , I didna ken that at all —Christ, Sassenach, ye canna think I would have marrit the woman, knowing she’d done such a thing to you!”

He lifted his hand and let my hair fall slowly from his fingers, brushing my face, skimming my lips, floating soft and heavy on my neck and shoulders, lying like feathers at the tops of my breasts. “Mo nighean donn,” he whispered, “mo chridhe. My brown lass, my heart.” “Come to me. Cover me. Shelter me, a bhean, heal me . Burn with me, as I burn for you.”
Sigh . . . Diana Gabaldon is a genius with words.

At this point I just have to say how much I love the way Diana writes. She is not just an author she is an artist. Some scenes, especially the ones between Jamie & Claire, just make me want to cry sometimes. I hope some of these words make it to the screen because it would be a shame if they didn't.

Ok, I was enjoying the book when all of a sudden it started skipping around. WTH? First Rosalia & Ciara are talking in her room and then all of a sudden he opens the door. Apparently Seumas knocked & interrupted them somewhere along the way but the author forgot to write it. So Ciaran is summoned away by Seumas and it suddenly skips once again to Seumas appearing once again at Rosalia's door to summon her as well.

Ok, this book is a little more religious than I expected. There should be some kind of designation.
