The Time Traveler's Wife

[Poppy_88]

I have just read the book 'The Time Traveler's Wife' by Audrey Niffenegger (2003) It has spent weeks at the top of the bestseller's lists and i can now understand why...

Not normally a fan of books that dip into the pocket of science-fiction, i wasn't sure what to expect after reading the slightly mind-boggling mini-description on the back... But i thoroughly enjoyed it, it wasn't too wild or away with it, but quite original whilst being thought-provoking and energetic..

- This will explain the slightly wonky plot better than i can!

I read this a while back and enjoyed it. I remember being about 3/4 of the way through and thinking that it just could not end in a good way at all! It is bitter-sweet at the end and I think the essence of it is about enduring love. I love twisty stories like that where you get a lot of threads and they all come together in the end.

I read this book a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. I found it very difficult to 'get into' to begin with, with all the jumping back and fore, but it was definitely worth perservering with.

Totally agree.

I am no fan of Sci Fi but found this utterly believable and quite haunting....brilliant ending!:D
