This book grabs you from the opening pages and never lets go. As soon as I finished I wanted to reread it. The love story is unique. Be prepared to cry.
This book is a stunning story about love ... it is very complex and well - crafted. Time travel is such a science-fiction thought but this story presents it in a way that is almost believeable... it becomes something you can just accept somehow.
This one was intimate and lovely and sad and funny. It was a romance, but fundementally unlike any other I've read.
The movie just paled in comparison... and it softened up some of the rougher and sadder parts of their story.
It was good to read the "real thing"... I might have been disappointed by the book if I hadn't seen the movie first and felt underwhelmed by a story with more possibilities... The book gave the depth to the story that the movie lacked almost entirely. Was good.

So very totally utterly intensely and wonderfully romantic.
I absolutely loved this book, and when I bought it I had no idea the emotional damage it would do to me. I became completely engrossed in the relationship between Claire and Henry, and fascinated by Niffennger's fascinating time travel sequences. Lets just say I did more than my share of public crying while reading this book, yet I could not force myself to put it down.

I started by loving this book and was listening non stop as I wanted to know more about the story and what was going to happen. I felt, however, it got pretty long at times and I got sorted of bored by some of the second half plot points. It picked up a little at the end but the ending wasn't as good as I hoped so it was sort of a slippery slope for the book. That being said, I found the feat of writing this really impressive and I DID really begin by being hooked. I also think I started finding some of the characters annoying haha.
Sad to not love this book as much as everyone else seems to! I also think I should stop listening to long audiobooks.

Amazing in so many ways. Hoffenegger takes a fascinating idea of a character constantly slipping in time and adds wonderful depth and drama.
This not your average love story. The man ( I can't remember his name ) is a time traveler. He has no control and just vanishes. He meets up with his wife at different stages in her life. Sometimes she knows him, sometimes she doesn't. It is beautiful and different. I loved every page!
