I read most of Outlander as a teenager and young adult (the German translations). This was an experiment.
I liked reading a mystery in a different time and I especially enjoyed all the research that went into gay culture of London in the 18th century.
The writing style is sometimes a bit too descriptive for me and it took me a while to get into the book at the beginning. Still, a nice read.
