3 Delectable things about DRAGONFLY IN AMBER by Diana Gabaldon
(May Contain Spoilers)
1. The Writing
Diana Gabaldon is an excellent writer, her descriptions are beautiful and really paint a picture in the mind.
2. 1700s France
As a fan of historical fiction, I enjoyed that most of the book took place in France during 1744. It was also interesting to learn about the Scottish rebellion of ‘45 as I’m completely ignorant of this event in history.
3. Romance
While Claire and Jamie are not my favorite couple ever, I am always a sucker for romance and will admit that there are many heartwarming moments between Claire and Jamie that were thoroughly enjoyable.
