The book (even more so than the last one) felt like it could have been a few hundred pages shorter, but that wasn't that big of a deal to me because I really like Gabaldon's writing style.
The love story between Roger and Brianna also really didn't feel believable and like it was just there to frame the rest of the story. It was very hard to get emotionally invested and I would have liked that part of the book to be a bit more focused.

A good portion of Dragonfly in Amber is spent in Paris, where Jamie is trying to both support Bonnie Prince Charlie's uprising and keep it from ever happening. Lots of things happen in Paris, and it's fascinating.
