samphiresyl 's review for:

Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon

3.75

---

I have very mixed feelings about this.... I FUCKING hated the part where they were living in France T.T I  was bored by the court politics and all that, and then by the end of the book it just didn't matter at all?? Like okay T.T The shit that happened while Jamie and Claire were there?? Craziness!! Some of the more traumatizing parts of that definitely felt excessive and urg just horrible. I was very uncomfortable reading those parts, though I suppose that was the intention as apparently Diana was going for a more morally gray route this book. Still some craziness. Once again FUCK JACK RANDALL!!! EW. Ew. I wish Diana would just kill him off already. I told myself that I wasn't going to continue this series after this book because of how much I disliked the France part, but damn the last 200 pages were actually kinda fire again T.T Like I speed through them because I wanted to know what happened so badly. I also really enjoyed Brianna and Roger's storyline, though aren't they related in a way? Like his Dad is her father's uncle? I don't have the brainpower for the mental dynamics of what that makes them but yikes!! So here we go again I suppose.... the next book is on hold from the library. Hopefully this one doesn't take me two months to read....
