Outlander Season 2

[Drywhitethanks]

When is it on? Have googled and says tomorrow (10th) but what time? not that I'm desperate or anything
Thanks

I read the first book when I'd seen the first half of season 1. I didn't find the differences confusing - it was interesting to compare. I left the second half of the book to read after the second half of season 2, but I wish I'd read it all at once. First because it was so great and I was really enjoying it, and second because in some ways you get more from the book, because there's more detail.

And anyway you wouldn't be reading it at the same time, you'd read it in a week!

I actually quite like how they've started series two, rather than how the book starts. I think it makes it easier to follow the storyline for the non-book readers.

I decided to re-read the whole series ahead of the to show coming back. I'm somewhat regretting my decision now; I'm on book 6 and running out of steam...

I don't think you'll find DIA too confusing. It starts off with you thinking "wtf?! This is not how I left it!" But it unravels itself relatively quickly - it's just a different point in Claire's 'other' life, rather than the immediate aftermath of her return.

Ok, I'm convinced - 1st book is on its way.

Bloody 1-click ordering on Amazon.

Agree about the theme tune- although it still gave me goosebumps when it started! I think this is the series I'm most excited about at the moment. Wondering how they'll do the rest of the book- whether it'll jump about or if they'll stick with one timeline at a time. Hud once you start its difficult to stop... made use of the next day delivery on prime as soon as I was getting to the end of one! LBOCS2 I was completely thrown by the start of DIA! After a few chapters it made sense though

Hurray!

I think his hair is a thing of wonder. In a kiltand plaid, speaking Gaelic, he is all my teenage fantasies come to life. Best with a fringe though, right enough.

People have told me read up to book 3 or 4 and then give up.

I quite liked the later books... they get a bit far fetched but I like the character development that goes on :-)

I don't like Jamie in the later books. I much prefer a couple of other characters 🤐

I'm kind of hoping the tv series goes in a different direction. I couldn't get past the opening chapters of (I think it was) the 4th one. It was interminable.

I loved the first book though. It's a shame none of the others were as good.

I like the later books because they are pretty much alone in romantic fiction in the depiction of an older couple still very much in love and still sexually active. (Hope I didn't give too much away there .)

Oh, found this too. Thought there may be a few people on here who'd appreciate it.

Oh yeah.

Woah.

I can imagine Valiah, I only read the "look inside" bit on Amazon and it seemed to prove how addictive those on here were saying it was!

Got the theme song in my head now!

Reminds me of home, I've heard it played on bagpipes many, many times.

I read that they changed the arrangement of the song to try to evoke more of the French aristocratic setting. They've added a viola da gamba to the instruments.

Luckily I've got the Outlander soundtrack vol 1. Love it!

I listen to it often in traffic - takes me to the Highlands...
