I'm pretty sure that my son's school is running out of ink printing all those notices to go home - someone has the flu, someone has strep...oh goodness.<br /><br />I have Outlander on my tbr shelf too.

People I really respect love it (like you!) but then I hear about all the glamorized rape scenes and I'm like, um, maybe not! We'll see. I'm glad you're enjoying the book. I 'm reading a crime novel called Ratlines and a March ARC by Rebecca Miller.
