I really need to read this freaking book, but like you, for some reason, I keep putting it off. I shouldn't, but I do, and now I'm at a point where I really need to STOP buying books cause there's so many on my shelf I haven't read. Boo!

Question: without spoiling too much, can you talk about how the relationship with Jamie played out? I ask because I've found a certain kind of bias against female characters who are married but end up having affairs with someone else. I know it can be done and done well and still keep the woman sympathetic (the obvious trick is having the woman's husband be a jerk), but I'm curious as to the dynamics in this, and how Gabaldon pulls it off?

Keep in mind, I could be completely crazy too. :)
