![]() ![]() So acting like the recovering Outlander book addict I am, I packed away my Jamie shrine (again, don’t judge), dropped out of my Gaelic classes (I was failing anyway) and Googled “what to read after Outlander”. So similar to the post “Finding My Next Shura” where Beth enlisted several friends to find a new book boyfriend, I needed to replace Jamie and Claire’s place at our holiday dinner table conversations (I said don’t judge!). Listen, when you are a mom of teenage and tween girls, escaping reality is a mode of survival and a hot book boyfriend is key to achieving that. (Noooo!!! Say it isn’t so?!?!) I was forced to resume mom duties again, no longer saying “yes” to every question just so they will leave me to my book (oh come on!!, don’t judge! I am not the only one who lets their kids eat ice cream for dinner during a book binge) and I even distinctly remember whining to my husband “What’s even the point to being literate anymore?!?!?! (yea, I know that was a bit dramatic, but hey, it happened, I’ll own it) Recently, I joined the ranks of millions of women that reached the end of Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series. ![]()
