great premise, then built a strong, witty, principled protagonist, just to realize too late she had sold a romance novel to her publisher… and so she proceeds to contrive one unbelievable situation after another debasing her character as irrational and illogical, and turning her into a clown, a shell of base female stereotypes just so she can have sex. But not real sex, Skinimax c-grade, implied-only sex. I couldn’t continue the book after 2/3 when there were no believable characters left. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss2.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_275413870" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_275413870"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_275413870" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_275413870" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_275413870"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/markald" target="_top">markald</a> | Nov 17, 2024 | <a href="/review/275413870"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_275359558" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/6463" data-workid="6463" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0440212561.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0440212561.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0440212561.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>4.5/5 stars - I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would, though the last section of the book was particularly brutal to get through.

I only caught a few sentences/paragraphs that were really awkward or repetitive.<br>-Great research. I have tried to do historical research to write something, and it's damn hard. So, much respect.<br>-The time travel.<br>-Interesting, but sometimes disturbing, parallels to the Catholic faith (the author is Catholic). She goes full-on Jesus-torture-plus-a-side-of-rape when Jamie makes a sacrifice for Claire (didn't like), but the general theme of suffering for another and some of Claire's conversations with the monks were cool. Claire accepted other people's faith as meaningful to them even though she didn't particularly share it.<br>-That it wasn't as violent as the TV show. It was still violent, but I felt like the author didn't go overboard into gruesome.<br>-The cliché woman-fantasy (she can have two husbands! OMG!)<br>-Sex. There is sometimes a lot of sex.<br><br>Stuff I didn't like:<br>-Yeah, the fact that Jamie beat Claire and she wasn't mad about it for very long. Kind of wrote that one off as "writer inserts S&M fantasy with the excuse that men in those times beat their wives." I would have been like "wtf kthnxbye."<br>-Jamie and Claire having sex right after she is forced to kill someone for the first time. That is just about the least sexy thing I can imagine. It came off totally cheesy.<br>-The cliché evil gay(?) villain(s).<br>-Some slower sections of the book that I didn't really care about. It's possible I would have been more curious about the outcome if I hadn't already seen the show. Maybe I wasn't looking forward to Jamie getting sodomized, so I was pleasantly surprised that it happened "off camera," so to speak, in the book, although we are regaled with the story later.<br></spoiler><br><br>I'll probably read the second one, and maybe the third one. I borrowed seasons 3 and 4 from my Dad, but haven't watched them yet.<br><br>I still think it's funny how much my Dad loves <i>Outlander</i>, but I have heard that it has some male fanbase. Must be the political intrigue and historical research... _>... <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss6.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_275085372"
