The Time Traveler's Wife

The Time Traveler's Wife

(2184 customer reviews)

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.

So Great. Mar 12, 2010
I couldn't put it down. The writer's style isn't really my typical style, but the story line is excellent and I couldn't keep from wanting to know what happens next.

TRAVELING BOOK Mar 11, 2010
Purchased for daughter for Valentine. She states that book
was not as interesting (plot hard to follow)as thought would be.
She donated to school library.

Thoroughly disappointed... Mar 10, 2010
I had very high hopes for this novel. I saw the previews for the movie on TV and wanted to read the book first. I finished the book last week, and I thought it was poorly written. There was no character development in the book at all. There was lack of emotion...I never could figure out what it was that Clare saw in Henry or vice versa. I thought that the book was exceedingly disgusting, especially the part about Clare fantasizing about Henry after he is dead when Gomez is making a pass at her...I'm not going into further detail there because it is utterly disgusting. I thought that the author took something beautiful, which is making love, and made it look trashy and disgusting in this stupid book. Again, I was very disappointed and I will not be reading anything from this author ever again.

Ugh! Mar 08, 2010
This book was so creepy I had to stop reading halfway through. An older man travels back in time to manipulate a young girl and mold her into his future wife, bleh!! Talk about your creepy pedo vibes. He is sociopathic and cares nothing if his actions (stealing for instance) hurt other people, as long as he gets his bride. Then he gets her and it's all sex sex sex pop culture hipster references and more sex. This made me roll my eyes.

I give the book a couple stars for the interesting side characters only.

Good Purchase Mar 08, 2010
Shipping was very prompt, and the book as in excellent condition, as described. I was completely satisfied with purchase.
