Outlander By Diana Gabaldon
A few weeks ago, I finished reading The Outlanders. It started out slow but picked up pace once the story got going and she actually went back in time. However, after 500 pages of overdone romance and sex and all that, I was getting a bit tired of it. I guess it may be the fact that I’m not one for time-traveling romance. Let alone the justification of the main character for her infidelity. Marriage is marriage. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a different time zone or anything, the vows are “till death do us part” not “till time travel do us part.” Other than that, the book kept me interested enough till the end but I probably won’t be continuing with the series. It probably wouldn’t be as bad if the story didn’t justify her infidelity and if she felt a bit remorseful for cheating rather than saying “Well I may never get back there. I love Frank but Jamie is too hot for me to resist.”
