danilanglie 's review for:
Lord John and the Private Matter
by Diana Gabaldon
If you're expecting another Outlander book, that's not what you're going to get. This is a much more manageable read, and while I wouldn't say I'm addicted to the Lord John series as much as I am to the main series itself, I will say that I find these books quite enjoyable. If you like the character of Lord John (and who wouldn't?!), then you should like sinking your teeth in to this book and the others in the series. John is so witty and delightful, and the plot is actually quite a lovely little mystery, with intricate twists and turns that kept me invested right up until the end. You don't have to read this book to jive with the main series, but when you get up to the later books in Outlander (7 and 8 particularly), it's nice to have a firmer grasp on Lord John as a character, as well as on the myriad people who make up his life.
