"The Time Traveler's Wife I wanted to read because a friend told me about it; and she couldn't describe it. It was kinda twisted in what she was saying, and that intrigued me even more. It's about, it's a love story overall but- it happens with a man who can travel; time travel.
I think right way I was hooked because it's very different. He just floats in and out of his life, and he runs into himself; and his wife when she's little. And he knows certain things. At certain times he's young meeting up with his old wife and she knows certain things; so that was odd about it.
In a sense pieces of him are in all of us. There are things we want to accomplish and there are gifts that we have. Like you could say that time traveling is a gift. But there are difficulties with it and he was king of this-not dork-but ah, he was a dork. And when he time traveled he showed up naked so it's kind of starting over and at times I think you can. I can relate to that, having to start over. You bang your head against the wall and you keep going, you just keep going. So I think that I could relate to that, not the naked part!
I've had long distance relationships before and in a way for Claire it was a long distance relationship because Henry was traveling and she didn't know when she would see him again. I mean, they could be in the middle of trying to get pregnant and he's gone for 3 months. And then she doesn't know if they're going to end up having a baby, so the whole waiting. It's a love story, they very much wanted to be together and I think they adored each other. But they didn't know when or what was going to happen.
I would recommend it to a whole bunch of people. As long as they're not complete realists, everything has to be by the book. It would annoy you; the time travel piece. As long as you have some sort of sense of adventure. The Harry Potter likers and the Lord of the Rings; and I would think male and female would get good things about it. So I would rate The Time Traveler's Wife a 5, because it was a good story but it had a wonderful twist and many things happen in there. It was a love story, it's timeless but it just has so many different things in it; because of the fact that he could time travel."
