Re his son, Jamie does not tell Claire that the mother threatened to hurt his relations at Lallybroch if he didn't sleep with her. Claire does not tell Jamie that Loaghaire was the one that got her involved in the witch trial. Claire doesn't tell Jamie that the reason she did not stay in the hold of the ship on the pirate raid is that Marsali left so Claire went to get her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-10426598932882510402014-09-12T16:03:17.583-04:002014-09-12T16:03:17.583-04:00Just found this blog (am rereading the series). Kn...Just found this blog (am rereading the series). Knowing this complication was coming and how Jamie pretty much screws it up by being a chicken, I thought it was a great touch of realism. Jamie is a better character by not being perfect. One of the things that I love about Outlander is that you can actually learn good usable things about love/intimacy. Today's lesson is "the perfect mate cannot be perfect" and "second chance love is usually complicated."<br />Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11615935085358265795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-60756598398964167732014-03-25T19:25:27.592-04:002014-03-25T19:25:27.592-04:00Oh you poor thing, Megan.

Since Claire returning to Jamie , I have had this sinking feeling that he had married and then when it was Laoghaire - i was so angry . I put the book down and left it alone for about 2 hours until the pull of wanting to know more was so great I started reading again. I feel betrayed <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01064366466229705282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-29493785933144504152013-09-17T10:02:25.473-04:002013-09-17T10:02:25.473-04:00No worries- I'm glad you found the blog, Elise...No worries- I'm glad you found the blog, Elise!

I figured he had married, not that I was happy about that, but I was furious to find out it was her. Every other woman he was with I felt was a betrayal even though it isn't rational, he's a man. I really didn't expect him to never have sex again, but you can't control how you feel. I was mad at Claire for being with Frank too, and I never understood why she never said anything to anyone but Gellis and the ho.<br /><br />I'm sorry this is way late, but I just found your blog. I love it!

Okay so Claire was with Frank for 20 years but JAMIE MADE HER GO! Was this his way of getting back at Claire for actually leaving him? NOT FAIR! But I suppose if it had been written so the person he had married you liked you would feel back for him leaving her to go back to me I mean Claire. STIL Loaghaire for ALL PEOPLE! Man thats just roughRoberta L.http://twitter.com/rlipke02noreply@blogger.com
