WAYPOINTS My Scottish Journey

Sam Heughan, OUTLANDER's Jamie Fraser, recounts his journey across the 96 miles of Scotland's West Highland Way. The story becomes a metaphor for Heughan's life as an actor in this atmospheric and absorbing memoir. He gives a spirited and heartwarming performance as he interweaves stories of how he became a successful working actor into the details of his arduous trek across the magnificent Scottish landscape. His swoon-worthy Scottish accent highlights his charm and self-effacing humor, along with the warmth one can hear when he mentions his devoted mother and loyal older brother. The inclusion of live recordings made during Heughan's hike, complete with sound effects of strong wind and heavy rain, are a lovely addition to this audiobook. M.F.
