Story
The year is 1771. Claire Randall is still an outlander, out of place and out of time. But now she is linked by love to her only anchor: Jamie Fraser. They have crossed oceans and centuries to build a life together in North Carolina. But tensions, both ancient and recent, threaten members of their clan. Knowing that his wife has the gift of prophecy, James must believe Claire, though he would prefer not to. Claire has shared a dreadful truth: there will, without a doubt, be a war.

Gets BETTER with each new addition
Reviewed: 07-30-16
I don't ever think I've read a book series that gets better with each new book. The last book (so far) in the series came out and I decided to start AGAIN at the beginning before reading the newest book. Gabaldon is perhaps the finest writer I've ever come across. We language is stunning. Her ability to weave a story is beyond compare. Each book gets better. Fiery Cross is an epic tale set in 1700s America and its so rich with effortless detail that I am carried away to this time and land. I am richer for having found this author. This is my all time favorite book series - and I'm 63 years old and a READER.

Story
A Wall Street tech leader explains how small behavioral changes lead to major self-improvement. Whether trying to lose weight, save money, or get organized, we' re always setting goals and making resolutions but rarely following through on them. Determination and willpower aren't strong enough to defeat our mass of ingrained habits; to succeed we have to learn how to focus our self-control on precise behavioral targets and overwhelm them, according to longtime Wall Street technology strategist Caroline Arnold.
