Did You Know Already?

For those of you who are fans of the Outlander series (by Diana Gabaldon) . . . and really, who isn't?! . . . well, did you know that Starz is filming a mini series to air sometime this summer?


Claire and Jamie.  Yep, it's true.  There's a Facebook page and everything.

Have you read Outlander?  How many times?

You haven't read it?  I kind of envy you . . . how excellent would it be to look forward to reading one of the best and most romantic books of all time . . . for the FIRST time?!  If you haven't read it, you really must.  If you've read it and want to refresh your memory, please do!  And if you want a link to the book on Amazon in its many forms, including Kindle, click HERE.

    How wonderful! I hope they air it in Australia and I hope Jamie fulfills my expectations of him that I have built in my head.

    I love this series and have read it several times. I don't suppose we will see the TV series in the UK.

    I've been reading since Outlander first came out, so other than Dragonfly (which I didn't know about--I didn't realize it was a series) I've waited patiently for each book. I follow Diana on facebook, so I've know about the series for a while. Isn't this photo awesome?!!!! I really hope I'm not disappointed with the series, but I know Diana is a consultant, so I'm hoping for the best.

    Oh, how wonderful! I just hope we get a chance to see it here in Sweden. I bought the first book for myself one Christmas (to Louise from Santa)to make sure I would have some reading during the holidays. I had no idea what I got myself into! I basically finished the book in one sitting! And then I turned the last page and it said: Read the first chapter of the continuation.... All the stores were closed for two days (Christmas)! When they finally opened I bought the next book, read it and the same thing happened again! You would think that I learned and checked how many parts, but noooo, not me. The third book I did, I'm a slow learner! :) Thanks for the good news!

    I just recently read them all. Can't wait for the next one. I'm always disappointed with series from great books. Hope they do this one justice!

    Oh, I love time travel books. I'll have to check out the books and the show! Have you ever read The Mirror by Marylis Milhiser? A wonderful time travel book. I have an extra copy I'd love to send you.

    Oh SQUEAL! I have read the series several times, and my paperback are worse for wear. Every time a new book came out I reread the whole series. (OK my squeal attracted the attention of my husband) I obviously do not get excited about much.
