A Goodreads user asked this question about Dragonfly in Amber (Outlander, #2):
I am on page 160 and can someone please tell me whether or not this book is worth reading? I really enjoyed Outlander and I had very high hopes for this book, however, chapter after tedious chapter of Claire and Jamie and their boring day to day existence in Paris is not very encouraging?

Big fan of the series on tv. There are some things in the writing of the books that I am not thrilled with. One, the authors continual use of "long" to describe every single body part of nearly everyone. Long fingers, long nose, long feet, and so on. Same thing with the use of the word "beating". I wish little things such as this varied, there are a plethora of descriptive words and hate when one is used over and over. (less)
