Dragonfly in Amber

Rating:
Summary: I LOVED IT
Review: ...loved it so much, I read it like 3 times. Everything is beautiful about it, the history between scotland, england, and france, the romance between the two lovers from different worlds and time. Sometimes, I wonder if I'll alter my pathway like D. Gabaldon did and switch from biology to full time writing fiction because she did such an inspiring job.

Summary: You MUST read this one
Review: A spellbinding tale of love and loss, Dragonfly in Amber has the relentless pace and stunning power of The Triumph and the Glory, the plot twists of Grisham at his best, the vivid imagery of Cold Mountain, and the steamy romance that only a historical romance novelist of Diana Gabaldon's stature can deliver.

Summary: The Outlander Series
Review: Of the 4 books presently in print, I liked this one the least, but nevertheless, the Outlander series is a gem. Multi-dimensional characters, about whom you come to care...flawless research for authenticity and a definate flair for profundity. I find myself underscoring passages that move me.

Summary: Was difficult to stay with for any length of time.
Review: I found this to be a very enjoyable book to read. If you want to read a book that goes straight to your heart, read Stolen Moments by Barbara Jeanne Fisher. . .It is a beautiful story of unrequited love. . .for certain the love story of the nineties. I intended to give the book a quick read, but I got so caught up in the story that I couldn't put the book down. From the very beginning, I was fully caught up in the heart-wrenching account of Julie Hunter's battle with lupus and her growing love for Don Lipton. This love, in the face of Julie's impending death, makes for a story that covers the range of human emotions. The touches of humor are great, too, they add some nice contrast and lighten things a bit when emotions are running high. I've never read a book more deserving of being published. It has rare depth. Julie's story will remind your readers that life and love are precious and not to be taken for granted. It has had an impact on me, and for that I'm grateful. Stolen Moments is written with so much sensitivity that it made me want to cry. It is a spellbinder. What terrific writing. Barbara does have an exceptional gift! This book was edited by Lupus specialist Dr. Matt Morrow too, and has the latest information on that disease. ..A perfect gift for someone who started college late in life, fell in love too late in life, is living with any illness, or trying to understand a loved one who is. . .A gift to be cherished forever.

Summary: Does it get better?
Review: I am about 1/4 of the way through this book and am so far pretty disappointed. It is quite slow and tedious so far ... I can only hope it gets better. I read Outlander in a week or so but this one is not holding me the way Outlander did. It does get better, doesn't it?

Summary: Overwritten, Gets Boring ZZZZZZ
Review: It was too drawn out and puffed up. I did not like the way it opened 18 years "after" Outlander ended, but I went along hoping it would get better. I wish it had picked up right after outlander ended tho. And skipped that preposterous prologue.

Summary: EXCELLENT, BUT I LIKED OUTLANDER MORE
Review: Awesome book. I loved it. The parts about Roger and Brianna were a little slow, but Claire's recounts about life in Scotland made up for that. I cried so much at the end. Can't wait to read Voyager! A great read, I'd recommend it to all romance lovers.

Summary: Fantastic and spellbinding!
Review: Loved it, loved it, loved it!!!! I must admit I got a little bit confused in the middle with the whole Jacobite thing and who was supporting who and who was fighting for what. But the revelations of the present-day were great and I can't wait to read Voyager and see Jamie and Claire reunited. For those who don't like violence in their books, be prepared for the gore of war.

PLEASE DIANA GIVE US MORE OF JAMIE AND CLAIRE!

Jamie and Claire have a relationship based on love and their love for one another is steadfast regardless of the circumstances. I can harldy wait to read Voyager!!
