Wow, it's great to hear that you have all enjoyed the books as much as I am enjoying them. After reading the Time Travelers Wife, I was wondering if these would be similar. I like them so much better though because the characters aren't constantly jumping through time. It makes these books much easier to follow. The love story is very endearing too.
I, like Kairilily find myself thinking about the characters all of the time. If, for whatever reason, I don't get a chance to read for a day or two, I miss Claire and Jaime terribly! I am reading the the fifth book (The Fiery Cross) right now and I inadvertently order the hardcover edition from the library. At 979 pages, it weighs about 3 1/2 lbs. (The shortest book so far was 850 pages) I find myself getting tired just holding up the book after a while. I have re-requested it in paperback.
The first book was wonderful, but full of so much human suffering that I found it hard to read at times. The second (Echo in the Bone) was the toughest to get through, but worth the read to get to Voyager which was probably my favorite so far. Reading these books makes me very happy to be living in this century!
