It isn't an action book, but a thoughtful book.
At the beginning of the book, I didn't understand what was happening. I don't know if this happens on purpose, or if it is the fact that Diana's writing style is very detailed and sometimes, confusing. The same had happened with Outlander, so I wasn't particularly worried about it.
The story begins in 1968 and then we go back in time, to the time where Jamie is still alive. It is very thrilling: they are living in Paris and we are presented with infinite gossip and scandals that fill the French Court. It reminded me of Reign (a CW series) and Scandal (an ABC Family series) in so many aspects.
Then we go to Scotland and see that Claire's choices have more impact in the future than she thought, so every step that she takes is done with extra carefulness.
The end is heart-breaking and bittersweet: we understand that choices need to be made or both of them will get killed. And we don't want that.
I am looking forward to read the next book, and see the second season because I believe that it will represent a challenge the fact that the show needs to recreate this two atmospheres: Paris and Scotland.
