You know how every once in a while, you read a book and once it's done, you feel like the earth has been shattered but you're the only one who seems to be affected? That's how I felt for a couple of days after finishing this. In “Outlander,” Claire and her husband, Frank, are visiting Scotland for a second honeymoon after years of being apart during World War II. While exploring alone on a hillside covered in strange rock formations, Claire inadvertently falls into the year 1743, where she is captured by the Scottish MacKenzie clan and thought to be an English spy. However, England's Captain Randall believes she is a French spy, and the MacKenzies force Claire to marry one of the clansmen for her own protection from the vicious captain. Torn between despair for the life she lost and a growing attraction to her new husband, Claire must decide who she can trust with the truth, and which life is worth pursuing. There are also a bunch of sequels, but I think I need to take a break before I jump into those.
