Editorial Review: Product Description: A dazzling novel in the most untraditional fashion, this is the remarkable story of Henry DeTamble, a dashing, adventuresome librarian who travels involuntarily through time, and Clare Abshire, an artist whose life takes a natural sequential course. Henry and Clare's passionate love affair endures across a sea of time and captures the two lovers in an impossibly romantic trap, and it is Audrey Niffenegger's cinematic storytelling that makes the novel's unconventional chronology so vibrantly triumphant. An enchanting debut and a spellbinding tale of fate and belief in the bonds of love, The Time Traveler's Wife is destined to captivate readers for years to come. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Surprisingly one of my new favorite books!I had no idea this book was going to grab me the way it did. It was there waiting and waiting for me to pick it up and when I finally did ~ I could not put it down! I am not usually a sappy romantic but this had so much other elements such as the time traveling that it was fun and intense along with seeing the love between the characters. So much so that you went along for the ride when Henry would leave and you felt the pain left when he would leave by Clare. It did not end the way I thought ... Read More Rating: - Very moving bookThis is a beautiful and heartbreaking book. I was hooked by the first page and completely absorbed by the second. It was such a fantastic and interesting premise, and I found myself wishing I had had a time traveler in my life while I was growing up (much like I wished we all had daemons when I read Philip Pullman's Golden Compass series). I wanted to savor every word, and I was pleased that it was such a long book--until I got about half-way through. About 1/3 of the last two hundred pages could ... Read More Rating: - Incredible!Having re-read this book after initially reading it about 3 years ago, I was just as enamored with this story as I was the first time. Henry and Clare's story is so mesmerizing both as a love story and as an original science-fiction concept. I cannot emphasize enough how captivating Henry's adventures through time are, and his relationship with Clare as both a young girl and as his wife is both poetic and realistic. This is a book I've recommended to many people over the past few years and I maintain ... Read More Rating: - if i could time travel, i'd go back and not read this bookFirst, I'll echo another reviewer and say it had useless scenes that didn't add to the story. Also, it seemed like everything was so extreme. I was fine buying into the time-travel deal. That's obvious. But, what was supposed to be realism was so fantastical. There were nothing slightly mundane, nothing NOT melodramatic. All emotions were heightened. I kind of felt like I was reading a romance novel that was dressed up as legitimate literature. It was pretty crass without it being about--I don't ... Read More Rating: - Love it!What a beautiful story! I was very into this book. The story was so touching. Love the concept and well written. I can't wait to see the movie! Browse for similar items by category:
