This book was perfect! Everything I needed for inspiration and practical starting guides for a self-reliant life. Anyone who has even a slight inkling to live a little more independently needs to read this book! Ms. Woginrich is delightful and you find yourself feeling like her best buddy at the end of it. She shares struggles, tragedies and triumphs in a way that makes you feel as though they were your own. Invaluable ideas, resources and inspiration.

This book will suck you into the Scottish Highlands of 1743 and will never let you go! Claire and Jamie are now essential parts of my life! It does start out a little slow, but the book is wonderful! Very well-researched and full of lore and language that bring the setting to life. Ms. Gabaldon can be a little overly descriptive (numbingly descriptive in the latter books) but the story is so good, you hardly notice. Read this book!
