fiona5's review against another edition

Not interested in the storyline, we’ve moved away from Scottish Highlands in this book which was the main reason I started this series. 
Jamie and Claire have a horrible unhealthy relationship at times but feel like it’s portrayed in an idealistic way. Some very problematic bits. 
Was not enjoying this book at all but pushed through in case it improved - think this is the end of my journey with this series and author

This story goes from being almost a history textbook to graphic sexual assault and back multiple times. It’s just not worth it.
