This felt more like the 1st book with plenty to keep the book moving and interesting, and character development to have you invested in it. It was harder to put down and didn’t have the lags that I felt like most of the previous in between books have had. 

I thought the 2 (or 3) timelines and events of Jamie/Claire et al, versus Roger/Brianna had a good balance and was interesting, letting your mind compare what you knew already to what was happening from a different perspective.
