Gripping, just like the first book. Not sure where the ending was going, but it made me want to immediately read #3.

Oh no! I'm a bug! I guess it's worth reading since it's short and people will think you're smarter if you've got it under your belt.

** spoiler alert ** Mrs. Bugs is killed tragically and accidentally by Ian while she was trying to retrieve the French Man's Gold. Arch Bugs her husband is grieve taken and swore vengeance by killing Ian's future wife paramour ? If he will ever have one. Ian is paranoid and it doesn't make matters any better when he falls for a Quaker named Rachel who Arch Bugs tries to kill/murder on more than one occasion and eventually fail. I find it impossible that Arch Bug who is Old and isn't in a good state of health isn't dying and still looming about trying to murder people with his ax. Has anyone noticed how so suddenly his character changed ? He was this sensible, quite and tolerable Old man and when his Gold connections is reviled he just went through an entire character switch ? And is now a complete nut head. Plus, what is it 'bout him protecting the gold from Jocasta Cameron or her husband ? I mean he is doing just as they were wasn't he also trying to steal the Gold away ? Give me a Break ! Roger and Brianna are back in the 20th Century Lallybroch with their kids but they are still hunted by their past emotionally and psychologically that is until their past gets materialized in the form or Bucceligh Mackenzie. My first thought was, what the heck is this dude doing here ? We finally know how he came to be in the 20th Century and specifically in Lallybroch but ones keeps wondering how did he TT to the future and not to any other time ? If the stones are supposed to be connected to one's brains and if they were bound to take you 200 years backwards, wasn't Bucceligh supposed to go 200 years back instead of 200 years forward ? and who was he thinking about when he stepped into the stones ? Surely not Roger ! Now, I'm really confused. I guess there is an exception to each rule but here is my thought the chart shows that he died at 30 years old which is his current age could it be possible that he didn't die but disappeared and went to the future and his family thought he was dead so that's how his life presumedly ended ? All things are possible maybe if he went back the charts would change. About Cameron plot twist and how he kidnapped Jem just to get the Gold. It's in another Continent for God's sake and was there for 200+ years. So, what he's supposed to go all the way to NC to a mine that may or may not exist anymore ? Just plain inconvenient and how is he even sure that *There* is Gold anymore ? Maybe Roger or Bree just made it all up ? Maybe it's a myth ? Why would he risk everything for it unless he is the recreation of Hector Cameron or another Time Traveller ? I was hoping that bit is resolved in this book but No, no such thing. William & Lord John are both dry and boring in this book. I liked John as a minor character and I always thought William was a total bully to the people below him. Neither came across as interesting in this novel. All what William does is wander around, flirt with the ladies and be ungrateful to Ian as he saved his life. I even seized to feel sorry for him when he got hit by Arch Bug's ax. Those two characters were easily the most boring in the entire book they even made Roger & Bree's parts looks interesting and I hate Bree. Why would Claire sleep with Lord John ? I understand the need to use the *gasp* shock factor but really was that even necessary ? it seized being shocking two books ago. I was shocked when Claire slept with the King of France, I was shocked when Jamie slept with Geneva and I was shocked when he married Loaghaire and while all those made some sense this one simply didn't. An unnecessary plot twist that I could've done without. I also don't see the depth or the meaning behind it other than creating false drama. Jenny is another person I personally don't want to hear more about. I liked her enough in the first two books but then in Voyager she came across as bad tempered and cranky all the time. As well as Overprotective. Protecting Jamie from Claire in Voyager ? Come On ! He's a grown man for God's sake not some baby and now blaming Claire for not helping her husband and even going as far as accusing her that she's the reason he ever contracted the illness ? Like it's Claire who told the English officers to take Ian and bring him to the cells so he can contract the cough and die 30 years later. Totally unreasonable and illogical I understand her husband is dying but was that really necessary ? It made me so frustrated. This book as a whole was frustrating and knowing the ending or lack of it doesn't help. Almost all the characters seemed forced to do things that are out of their character and things they wouldn't do if they were real people. The Only plot line that was interesting enough was Bree and Roger and Jem. Although that was at the very end and it'll leave you cliff hanging. Also, it is fair to say that DG has totally sacrificed her story/plot/characters for the sake of Historical research. That isn't the reason people read these books. For me nothing could outshine the splendor of the first two books. ABOSAA was a good read but still the first two are solid. Even Voyager was Not so bad it had it's heartwarming moments. Drums of Autumn was good up till Bree/Stephen Bonnet issue. The FC was cramming of details it was impossible. Even the villains I noticed are becoming more and more ridicules by the book as well as less memorable. Stephen Bonnet a drunk Pirate who doesn't seem to think outside his animalistic needs of murder, rape, sleep, food etc... The Two Brothers in ABOSAA which I totally forget their names who seem like Hooligans nonetheless with no intellectual depth to recommend them and Now Arch Bug ? The man has a wit of a fish. Cameron is a total jerk if you asked me that Bree should've just kept away from. I miss Old time Villains who were despite their evilness somehow memorable EARLY Gillies Duncan she was too crazy in Voyager, Dougal & Colum Mackenzie, Duke of Sandrigham and yes even Black Jack Randall. Those all were complex characters with some target in mind. I will still buy the next book because I invested too much time and effort into this series and hopefully it'll come across as good as the first two books. I'm Hoping more story and less History.

It’s a mystery that is more of the cozy type, and it appears to be the first of a series. The setting is in a fictional coastal town in the San Francisco area of California. The protagonist is a daughter of one of the founding families of the area which has fallen on hard times. Ignoring her socialite background, she has found a fulfilling career as a zookeeper, but when a member of the most prominent family in town is found mauled to a bloody pulp in the enclosure of the Giant Anteater, she has a crime to solve. The man had been shot, but, nevertheless, the crime threatens her charge, and subsequent developments threaten her own life as well. This book is a fun listen. I look forward to the next book in the series.

This is one of those series that I wish I hadn't started, but now I have to finish because that is just me. It was difficult to read when I could tell what was going to happen right at the beginning. But for some odd reason, I really liked the ending. Maybe it had something to do with the exciting idea of having a new start. Now I am a bit more excited about reading the next book.

I quit halfway through the book when I hadn't come across a single concept, idea, insight, etc. I didn't already know. It's 50% common-sense, and 50% experience, with lots of obviously made-up "quotes" from supposed people, who "talk" about their jobs but in most cases what they say isn't what someone in that field would say. Overall, no even a single gem found at the halfway mark, and that's when I move on to the next book.
I liked the concept of this book, but it was a little tiresome to read. I don't know why but the voice of the main character just felt false to me. I kept thinking, "Gosh, do teens really talk like this?" I don't know, my daughter is six and is cooler than this girl lol. Anyway, it has a nice morale and a nice little lesson in there about faith, trust, and integrity.

Maya Angelou has such a poetic writing style even while describing her arduous childhood to the reader. Every word moves you. The incredible challenges she faced and conquered during a time when blacks and women were considered obtuse and useless were remarkable to read. To see how she grew spiritually and cognitively during this time in her life was truly inspirational. Ms. Angelou is absolutely one TOUGH COOKIE!

I did enjoy this book, but it makes me sad that such talented people have such distorted lives. It seems impossible to achieve normalcy when fame strikes.
