@litera I really did! It's different from any other books I've read and I found myself liking characters in the end (once you get to know them) that I really didn't think Id like from the beginning, and vice versa...I would definitely recommend it!
@litera it took me awhile to get into actually. I think it's so much harder to get through a book when you don't like the characters, and I couldn't stand either of them for obvious reasons.

I have now read through all of the Outlander books as well as the side novellas and such attached to it (all since about a week before DD was born). And since the show started I decided to re-read book 1, so I'm into that again. I'm looking for something new so I'll have to check out what you all are reading (though I really don't know about Gone Girl. Something about it just kind of seems meh to me).

Wow! You're doing better than me... I'm on book 5 of the Outlander series right now!
I read young adult lit mainly and I'm about to start Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie Stiefvater.

I'm trudging along in the 5th Outlander book. I only get to read during my pump sessions at work so it's taking me 2 years to get through it. The first half of the book was boring as hell, but now that the stuff with Roger is happening, it's getting better.

I totally agree. I'm about halfway through it at the moment.
I'm listening to the book All the Light You Cannot See ( I have an audible.com monthly subscription that I listen to while on my long communtes)
The story takes place in three locations a steel and coal town in Germany, Paris and a small seaside town saint-malo from the 1930's to the midst of WWII. The main characters are a french blind girl, a brilliant orphaned German boy, and a large diamond that carries a curse.
I haven't found out how these all will intertwine yet but the story is rich in character development. I'm really enjoying the book so far but I'm also a sucker for books set during this time period.
