OK y'all. Now that we've gotten Thanksgiving out of the way here in the states, Christmas is right around the corner. What's on you wish list?
THAT question made me do a little googling...and I found this article about Jamie Fraser's non-attainable, idealistic qualities.
You may be confused as to whether she's being snarky or silly, but I chose the latter and found this a hilarious read. :)
Enjoyed the article, but just wanted to say that I've gone back and ReRead All of your Posts about the Big Books as you were reading/writing them. I will definitely say that rereading your original posts is as entertaining (well, allllmost) as rereading Gabaldon. Picked up comments and details that I didna notice before. Thanks for keeping this site alive and kicking.
ReplyDeleteAwww THANKS Barbara! I think you may have just made my day! 😘
DeleteObviously the writer of the article hasn't invested too much in the big picture of who and what Jamie really is and the same for Claire. Lots of readers and TV watchers miss or misunderstand what they see. Sometimes one must just get inside Diana's head for only she can interpret her books and characters. PS: I am deeply sorry for women who have not experienced the the "Jamie" kind of guy. Fortunately I have. I was truly blessed. I enjoyed the article however and although it was entertaining, it sounded like bitter sour grapes to me!!!!!
ReplyDeletethe article is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Just what I needed to pull me back from abandoning all and hopping a jet to Scotland to go find myself a Hot Scot like Jamie Fraser somewhere out in the Hebrides ... even though I am married for many years with kids and all. Well, you know the feeling. A girl can dream.
ReplyDeleteSo thanks so much for the pull back to reality. Even if I do get all caught up in it again once the next book comes out or Season Three begins. Love your chats girls. Thanks so much!
We're right on that JAMMF roller coaster with you, Newly! 😘
