adventurous emotional tense medium-paced

4.5

I think this is my favorite book in the series so far. Engaging and gut-wrenching. The plot was so much better than whatever the hell DG tried to do with TFC, and it was more focused on Jamie and Claire and their family. Some of my favorite JC moments came out of this book, as well as some really tender family moments, which is all I really want for these babies 🥺

I could have done without the numerous references to Claire's and Brianna's arses. But, overall, I really enjoyed this book.
