18. Half way through "Outlander" (first book) by Diana Gabaldon
Mon Jul 10, 2017, 07:23 AM
Jul 2017

The premise sounded interesting, so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm about half way through and am enjoying it. Between work and yard chores, I haven't had time to read except for short bursts. I'm going to have to renew it, if there are no holds on it. I'm struggling a little with the Scottish dialog, but not too bad.
