I started Voyager on Saturday and it took me 200 pages to get in to it. I stuck it out because I'm hooked on the series (and it's over 950 pages!). I'm a couple chapters past when Claire returns to Jamie I think I just don't like reading about Jamie and Claire apart. I especially didn't like reading about Jamie with other women. Oh, and I'm not too happy about him having a son with that girl, even though I know it made him so happy. Argh! I want Brianna and Roger to go through the stones and surprise them.
That is all. I just need someone to talk about it with. I'm really loving that my library has the entire series available for my e-reader. I'm trying to pace myself since the next (last?) book isn't going to be out until next year, but I devour each book once I start it. ![]()
Re: Sarah B & Paige - Outlander (sp through book 3)
I do find that they are all kind of slow to get into. I think I picked up (and put down) Snow (book 6) about 5 times before I finally pushed through and read it.
Book 4 was my least favorite (Drums of Autumn, I think). It's been a long time since I've read those ones. I am partway through Dragonfly in my quest to re-read before book 8 comes out. I have a feeling that book 8 might be the last one, and I will be SO sad to say goodbye to these characters.

mmmmmm Jamie Fraser. ......
Sorry I spaced off day dreaming about his sexiness for a moment.
I was actually talking about this series again yesterday. I went to the zoo with a friend and her mom and her mom just read it based on my recomendation and she loved it too.
I haven't read the LJG series yet but I really want to. I want to say it can be read anytime after book 4? But maybe it was 3. Since I read them all in order without breaks all 8 books kinda blend together. I just listened to #1 and I forgot that it ended like it did. I thought the book went farther into her pregnancy not that she just "knew" she was pregnant like the moment it happened.
I think that overall book 9 had a lot of slow parts but it was still reallllllly good. I just started looking through The Outlandish Companion last night. (Which has spoilers through book 4) and it tells about how DG first had a 3 book deal for Outlander and then needed more and then it was 6 and she realized she still needed more to tell their story. I'm going to guess that it will end up being at least 9 books just because she seems so focused on that they came in 3s in the companion book.
I'm so glad you stuck it out and gave the first one a chance Jo. I told you it was worth it!!!
