Fun read

It was fun to see a bit of Jamie and Ian as they were in the beginning. Not bad for a bit of backstory, or literary snacks, as the author calls them.

Ok. Maybe 2.5stars but I still don't think it's worth that. This novella took me a month to read. Once I sat this book down the desire to pick it up again was lacking.

Nice quick read, adds a little bit to the story.
HOWEVER I'd recommend buying the kindle version instead of paying out for the hardback. The story Virgins only makes up for about 1/2 the book, the other is made up by the first few chapters of Outlander. If you already own Outlander then save yourself some money and just buy the kindle version at £1.99.

While this was a nice short read, and I enjoyed learning more about Jamie’s life before Claire was in it, but the story didn’t grip me as much as I would’ve liked. Was a nice way to catch up on my reading goal though!
