    Outlander

    Anybody into the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon?

    This is one that was introduced to me by a very religious friend in high school, surprisingly (who even told me she was introduced to the series by her mother). Super sexy, sometimes dark, sometimes witchy, very time-travel based. There's a new series on TV based on the books that I've found to be pretty enjoyable (in the times they're not being true to the books, they make some generally good plot decisions, in my opinion).

    I want to talk about it! Anybody read any of the books or watched any of the show? I'm a huge fan.

    Yes!!! But I'm only on Season 2!

    Season 1 was FREAKING FANTASTIC and totally blew me away in a way no other show ever has!!!!

    I just caught up on the show and I'm re-reading the series so I can hopefully catch up on her latest releases! @(you need an account to see links) you're a book ahead of me, hahah. I finished the Fiery Cross and then got super caught up in the show, so I'm going back and reading for details. Is the ninth book supposed to be the last one?

    @(you need an account to see links) I love how they did Season 1, they were keeping pretty true to the books the best they could!
    I've been listening to the intro song for each season and I'm obsessed with how they change it to fit the season's theme... I get chills almost every time, lol

    I'm realizing it's extremely hard to talk about a lengthy series like this without spoilers, whoops...

    I hope this doesn�t make you feel less excited for the other seasons, but season/book 1 was my favorite! One of the best books I�ve ever read!

    Although I'm enjoying Season 2, I must say it really doesn't capture me like Season 1 did. Oh well haha I still love it. ^^ Perhaps I'll read the books eventually!

    Okay so an annoying disparity between the books and the show after seeing the latest episode:
