OUTLANDER DROUGHT IS OVER!!!!
How in the world does one get so addicted to a TV series??? Seriously, I worry that I won’t live long enough to see or read everything Outlander!!!!
Last Friday the most recent season released. I was so hoping that all the episodes would release at the same time so that I could do a binge watch. But, alas, (as the Scots would say) it was not to be. I have to wait for the next 7weeks for one episode a week.
I was not disappointed, the 9th episode of season 7 was excellent in my opinion, with a shocker ending that I did not see coming. I recovered, then decided to go back 5 episodes into the previous season to refresh my memory. So, this weekend I have spent refreshing my memory, getting very emotional on occasion and quite excited on occasion.
Part of the fun for me is that in 2019 I took a 13-day tour of Scotland that was Outlander themed. So, I got to see the hill where Claire first passes through the stones. (Stones by the way are fake, created by the production company.) I’ve been to Lollybrock, to the Culloden Battlefield and to Jamie’s printing business in Edinburgh.
Its hard to believe that the first episode aired on 8/9/2014….10 years ago!!! I have no idea when I first started reading the books, but am very grateful that I did not find the series when it first launched because I would have been bald from pulling out my hair waiting for each book release. In my case, if I remember correctly, I got to read the first 5 novels one after the other…. from there on out I had to wait for each book to be released. They came out fairly quickly, but the last few have slowed down. The 10th and final book is expected to be released sometime between 2024-2026…..they say there will be a happy ending….. geeze, I hope so!
As for the 8th season of the TV series, there will be 10 episodes and it will be the final season. Not sure how they will do that when the 10th book is not yet released, and I’m fearful that I might be 90 years old when the final TV season airs.
I’ve got my fingers crossed!!!!

You introduced me to Outlander on one of our Florida trips. When you wanted to come off the beach early so you could read your latest book I was definitely intrigued enough to get myself addicted as well. Thank you.
