Outlander is one of those rare books that takes up permanent residence in your heart. The language is beautiful, detailed, and intricate. The story and setting are captivating. The characters come alive with clever dialogue and vivid descriptions. The novel grips you to the very end and leaves you wanting more. Thankfully, there are several more books in the series, each just as good as the last, while at the same time each stands on its own two metaphorical feet, continuing the story without ever being repetitive. Thank you Diana Gabaldon.End-note: this novel is intended for Adult readers. There is mature content within. For example, do not take it as a gift to a 12 year old's birthday party, or allow anyone really under the age of eighteen or so to randomly flip open a page. Keep it for yourself, recommend it to your (grown-up) friends, and enjoy the ride :)
