very imaginative
The story is about Clare and Henry who were married when Clare was 22 and Henry was 30. Henry suffers from a rare disease where his genetic clock periodically resets and he finds himself, without warning, in the past or future. The book combines a science... more

Fast-read, interesting
The whole idea is fascinating...the characters are wonderful. Lots of drama and a little bit of romance. I loved it and am sure you will too. Enjoy!

Amusing and FUN!

The book jacket describes the story as a love story about a man (Henry) and his wife (Clare). However, their tale is unusual. Henry has a genetic disorder that results in him being temporarily misplaced in time. Yes, you heard me right, he time... more

Phenomenal
Words cannot even begin to describe this moving and utterly fantastic book. It is a love story; it is the story of a strong, rich, and united bond as never written before.

Clare and Henry are best friends, lovers, spouses. He met her... more

Trying Too Hard
The premise is interesting enough: Henry and Clare are lovers who meet and re-meet between different chronological ages, slowly assembling memories one has and the other has not yet experienced. When Clare first meets Henry, she is 6 and he is in his... more

Love story that endures through time
I really enjoyed this book. The author really took a leap with the jumping around in time. At first I found it to be a little confusing and was concerned that I wouldn't be able to keep the forward and backward time jumps straight, but soon I found... more

Pushes the Envelope
`The Time Traveler's Wife' is a mind-blowing, mind-bending romance. The sheer imagination is amazing. I LOVE writers that push the envelope. The romance will make you tear up and cry. It is a lovely and beautiful story that spans time and space. Truly,... more

Great sci-fi/love story novel!
The Time Traveler's Wife is an interesting conglomeration of science fiction and romance. It is an easy read for such a hefty book. I personally enjoyed the realistic portrayal of both Clare and Henry. They are both lovely characters who love each... more

Love persists through time - XX Libris Book Club
Our book club of 7 women in their 40s (with 25-35-year-old friendships) rated this book with three 5's and two 4.5's (out of 5). We said it was "lovely and kind of sad" and "a sweet love story." We delighted in the unconditional love of Clare, and her... more

smart
among present day's chick-lit, this one far surpasses them. it reminds us of romance and love long gone in present time. love that is worth waiting for, love between 2 people where they battle against external unforseen forces that threatens to tear them... more

If you're going to write sci-fi, first read sci-fi
My major gripe about this book is the complete lack of originality. Niffenegger has added nothing to the large body of well-thought-out fiction exploring the concept of and problems associated with time travel. It's as if she sat down one day, thought... more

a gripping and touching story of love
I truly loved this novel. The love story between Henry and Clare is unique, and yet these two seem as familiar as family. I also loved how the novel was organized, flipping back and forth between Henry and Clare, so that you really get to know them. It's... more

wonderful
This was a fantastic book and I found myself unable to put it down during late-night hours despite my exhaustion. My mom got it for me for Christmas and I almost refused to read it because the plot synopsis on the back of the book make the premise appear... more

Buuu!
False like one chocolate coin (with too much sugar). To half road between Kurt Vonnegut and Sandra Brown. I prefer to read the authentic writers.

My all time favorite book
This is a really wonderful book. It's a 'timeless' love story that has stayed with me long after i finished reading it. Just goes to show you, timing is everything and nothing . . . don't think twice about buying this one.

Sensitive Readers Beware
The Time Traveler's Wife is a totally absorbing journey. I loved this book, and was grateful to have such a wonderful story I could escape into. I read for hours at a time, not wanting to put the book down. I looked forward to my time alone with Henry... more

brokenhearted
this book broke my heart over and over again. not much of one for romances, or for time traveling, but i was absorbed into clare and henry's lives and now i don't want to leave. i can't just start it over again because it is still too fresh, but i can't... more

Nothing Wrong With Mainstream
The biggest complaint I hear about "The Time Traveler's Wife" is that it is that the mainstream enjoys it - that it's "commercial" and "popular" like "The Secret Life of Bees," Life of Pi," and "My Fractured... more
