Outlander

I read this book almost a year ago now and I loved it! Then I did a project for college on sexual abuse in literature and this book came up. After analyzing this book more closely it's kind of problematic in many ways. Like Jamie honestly has so many abusive flaws, and I get that it kind of has to do with the time period, but I don't know I just can't get behind it as much as I initially had. I also think I loved it so much because I wanted to love it. I heard so many good things and there was so much hype I wanted to love this book so I kind of forced myself to love it if that makes sense. It was still a good book, and was super well written if you can recognize and acknowledge that Jamie Fraser is not Prince Charming dreamboat. But I just really don't see myself reading anymore in this series, and I'm planning on unhauling all of my Diana Gabaldon books.
