5+++ STARS ★★★★★

Anyone who's known me longer than 5 minutes knows this is my favorite book. I've always said I'll never write a review about it. I gave in, but I won't be able to write anything dispassionate about it, nor write about it reasonably, so I'll just say what I love about it... I love Jamie, Claire, Inverness, Castle Leoch, Jamie, Dougal and Colum, the wedding, Jamie, the humour, the childhood stories, Jamie, Lallybroch, Jenny, Jamie, Ian, the kids, JAMIE!, the desriptions, the ending...And of course Jamie, lol. Basically I love everything. Now, that list probably didn't make sense for someone who didn't read it, but to clarify my feelings. I love Outlander more than... Shoes... Ebook readers... and chocolate Again, everyone who knows me knows I can't live without these things, so the measure of my love is clear. Oh, and a bit more about Jamie. He's the most amazing character I've ever "met" and if it wouldn't be too weird I'd say I want to marry him and have his babies. Hell, I'm crazy anyway. I'd marry Jamie in a second. And some quotes... The Vows: Ye are Blood of my Blood, and Bone of my Bone. I give ye my Body, that we Two might be One. I give ye my Spirit, ’til our Life shall be Done.’ ” The Poem: Then let amorous kisses dwell On our lips, begin and tell A Thousand and a Hundred score A Hundred, and a Thousand more. And some Jamie-isms “I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have.” “Oh, aye, Sassenach. I am your master . . . and you're mine. Seems I canna possess your soul without losing my own.” “There are things that I canna tell you, at least not yet. And I'll ask nothing of ye that ye canna give me. But what I would ask of ye---when you do tell me something, let it be the truth. And I'll promise ye the same. We have nothing now between us, save---respect, perhaps. And I think that respect has maybe room for secrets, but not for lies. Do ye agree?” “Ye werena the first lass I kissed," he said softly. "But I swear you'll be the last.” “I swore an oath before the altar of God to protect this woman. And if you're tellin' me that ye consider your own authority to be greater than that of the Almighty, then I must inform ye that I'm not of that opinion, myself.” And just quotes I loved “For where all love is, the speaking is unnecessary. It is all. It is undying. And it is enough.” “Sometimes our best action result in things that are most regrettable.”
