I can not put into words how much I enjoyed this book. Audry Niffenegger did a great job in bringing her characters to life. I laughed with them, got mad with them, and cried with them. It was a roller coaster of emotions. At 536 pages, I found that I could not put the book the down and had it read in no time at all.As book title suggests, the book the about a man named Henry who involuntarily travelers through time and his wife Clare. This is a story of their life. The ups and downs and everything in between. These characters are so real. They are not put on a pedestal and can do no wrong. They are regular people who are struggling to make a life together like so many of us.
People Magazine was quoted as saying "As Clare and Henry take turns telling the story, revealing the dept of their bond despite everything, a sci-fi premise becomes a powerfully original love story." That is something else I love about this book. It is original. I have never read anything like it before. I highly recommend The Time Traveler's Wife.

I read this, too, and liked it! Of course, I love time traveler books. Have you read any of Diana Gabaldon?
ReplyDeleteSeveral people have mentioned this book, so I might check it out!
ReplyDeleteYa know, you'll never find Time Travelers Wife in the Sci/Fi section of the Bookstore. Niffenegger is found under Fiction/Lit.
