What readers think of The Time Traveler's Wife, plus links to write your own review.

Pornography meets science fiction.

Self-absorbed, self-indulged protagonists slog through their meaningless lives accented only by binges of alcohol, drugs, oral sex, and punk-art.

Hope comes only in knowing that Henry really will die and that Clare (who care nothing for Henry, but only for the fantasy of him during his absences) will live on in loneliness. Ugh!

Well written if the author's desire is for us to wish Henry and Clare a classic No Exit existence. BTW Dasein is seriously misunderstood in this novel. Of course, so is punk, but likely the author is just hoping nobody noticed.

To be fair, the author did not promise us characters that we would like or even care about. She delivers well on that non-promise.

Could have been reduced to a short story with no content loss.

Whoa! I love love stories but truly, you get sooo caught up in the different times zones, that you can't appreciate this couples' love for each other.

It got so caught up in him traveling back and fourth, but mostly when you see him in present time and than you see him in the same scene from another year......I was very disappointed.......

This is my absolute favorite book in at least the last year. I fell in love with both Clare and Henry. I used to live in Chicago and felt like I was one of their friends experiencing the book along with both of them. I don't remember the last time a book made me cry, but cry I did after I finished this book. As other reviewers have said, I missed Clare and Henry. I wanted to invite both Henry and Clare over to hang out.

I also saw so much of my husband and I in the characters, which made me more endeared to this book. I think what makes everyone love this book is that they see a part of themselves in the characters. They are the type of people that we all feel like we could love on an intimate level, as well as a friendship level.

I recently felt like I pushed this book on my sister . I wasn't sure how she would feel about it but she loved this book too. Since I finished this book in January, I've had a hard time finding books to read because I'm always looking for the next book that I will fall so deeply in love with and will grip me as this book did. My sister expressed to me that she doesn't want to start another book yet because she loved this book so much. Recommend it to everyone you know, even those you're not sure will like it. We both miss the characters.

I have only read one book twice in my life, it was Ramona Quimby, Age 8 when I was in 5th grade. The Time Traveler's Wife will probably be the second book that I read twice. My husband is doing this book for his book group next month. I can't wait to hear other people's reactions to this book. I have a feeling it will be a packed house.

simply outstanding...!! this book is the joy in the joy of reading... please pass this comment back the author.......
