Outlander
by Diana Gabaldon
Outlander (3/10/2011)
I love this book! It's been on my reading list for years but receiving it from BB finally nudged me to read it. Technically this book is a time-travel but doesn't read like that, but rather like historical fiction with a contemporary flair. The story is set in 18th century Scotland and the narrator, who finds herself unexpectedly there, is very believable and likable as a character. The history and culture of the times are nicely revealed, as is post war England. A definite must read.
