I have started this book a couple of times and set it down. Can anyone tell me their thoughts on Echo in the Bone? Is it as good as her previous books in the series? Should I press on?

It's not as good as the first two books, but reminds me of 3 one if that helps. Anyway, keep reading you won't be disappointed.(less)

Why was this one called "An Echo in the Bone?" Did it reference something in the story? I just finished it and could not determine the answer to this.

I have many questions about this book Echo. How do I remember all the details and characters ?

Does someone know what is the quotation that Diana Gabaldon said is from her great grandfather in the acknowledgements and was said by Jamie in the book?

Where can I find this book in Arrow paperback? I've bought the whole series in those editions and I don't want to have to ruin my bookcase Dx

Why does Claire allow Tom Christie to kiss her? At first I assumed she was just caught off guard, but then after her discussion with Jamie and how she slapped him and talked about how quickly she gets defensive around men I am left questioning it. I don't think she has any feelings for him and clearly Jamie takes care of her "needs" so...?
