Review of 'Dragonfly in Amber' on 'Storygraph'

2 stars

Upon finishing this book, my overwhelming feeling is relief because I don't have to read it anymore. It ends on a cliffhanger but I don't care enough to continue. I did like Claire more in this book than I did in the first one, but I liked Jamie less, so it was a wash. Perhaps I know too much about the historical period to relax and enjoy the ride, or perhaps Gabaldon's style of writing isn't my thing.
