Diana Gabaldon answered Andrea's question: I just want to say thank-you for taking me on this wonderful journey with you? I read Cross Stitch in the early 90's. I have been hooked ever since. Every time you bring out a new book I re-read the whole series so I go back into the wonderful world of Jamie & Clare. I enjoy them just as much every time and find little bits I missed with every read. Thank-you for the years of entertainment and escapism. Thank you very much, Andrea! I'm thrilled that you enjoy them so much!
