lakelady reviewed Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon (Outlander (2))
Review of 'Dragonfly in Amber' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
It had been awhile since reading the first book so it took me a bit to re-immerse myself in this story. Once I did it was enjoyable but at times I found myself thinking "ok, get on with it". Diana is a good storyteller and great at weaving through complex storylines but there are times I wish she weren't quite so long-winded. I kept going because of my own previous knowledge of the battle of Culloden so I wanted to see where she would take the story. In the end I was not disappointed and the pace certainly picked up. I'll definitely keep reading this series, even if it's only now and then.
