Voyager

I really loved this book. After being a bit disappointed by the beginning of the previous book, I loved this one way more again. There's a few twists I really did not expect.
Claire somehow starts getting on my nerve as she's always getting into troubles and fainting all the time and somehow not learning at all from any bad choices she's taken so far. But in general I really the story. Cannot wait to continue with the series!

Here's the thing. These books are faintly ridiculous and certainly overlong. But it's a fun ride, as well. This is not quality literature by any stretch of the imagination, and that's ok. It's escapism in its truest form, and honestly, as long as it keeps me entertained, I'm not really asking for more than that.

A lot happens in Voyager, and it doesn't all make sense. I'm hoping Gabaldon explains more in the Outlander Companion (volume 1), but I have to read Drums of Autumn first before I can read that, because spoilers abound. I don't care for the cliffhanger this one ended on, but I suppose that's just how DG rolls.

It's been a while and on third read it's not quite as interesting. I find myself skipping through pages. The love story doesn't fascinate me as much anymore.
