Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I really have a hard time with this review, but I think people should know what I truly think about it. First I must assure you, I have loved all Ms. Gabaldon's books. I thought they were well written and thoroughly researched. Compared to the previous 8 books, this book is terrible. Because it has been so long since the last book, I barely remembered some of the minor characters and I do not suffer from memory loss issues. Only about 1/3 of the book was interesting. The rest, I refer too as just filler pages, has little, if any, meaning to the story. It jumped around from people and places so much it appeared disjointed. It took me 2 weeks to read this behemoth of a book. I read so many outstanding reviews of this book it makes me believe I must have read a different book. It's hard for me to believe Ms. Gabaldon wrote this. I'll probably not live long enough for the last installment, but that is fine. I have my own ending. It's a time loop. Good reading to all, retired to read 5/17/22 BTW: I did not and will not watch any more of the Starz Outlander series. It ruined the books.
