Reading books helps beat the heat

Here's one for the Reading corner. Any recommendations out there for the Celtic genre? I have some and if there are others with similar interest let me know and I'll PM (most others just think I'm weird, and well who am I kidding? I am PFM's other half :rotflmao:). I'm currently reading the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon, that I'd heard of but thought it was too mainstream to be good. I'm not a fan of typical romance or soap opera drama. Now I see what they were raving about. There are 6 books of at least 600-800pgs each, and I typically don't read over 200-300 because I don't have the time. Heck, I typically take awhile just to get thru a magazine for constant interruptions! These, if I permit myself to get lost in time (literally) I will finish in a few days. They are historical Romance set in the 18th century Scottish Highlands, but they have elements of suspense/mystery and you never know where the story will turn. Keeps me in the air conditioning anyway.
