Yeah I agree with that. Easily makes my top five books A bit confusing at times but well worth it in the end

[joe]

This is my all time favourite book too

[MuggleMagic]

I loved the book and the film

[booklover7809]

Amazing. If I had to describe this story in one word, that word would be

[Heather]

I never saw the film and I still have the book to but I think it will be next year before I get around to reading THe Time Travellers Wife.

[Mexicola]

My OH had to explain the time travel to me about five times before I finally could grasp it Thoroughly enjoyed this book as did my OH who isn't a big reader.

[TotalBookWorm]

I kind of enjoyed this one but got bored half way through im afraid wasnt for me

[joe]

That's a shame, maybe try it again later

[Heather]

I've started this book and so far I am really enjoying it and can't put the book down.

[lexiepiper]

Glad you're enjoying it Heather

I've read it a few times and know other people who've read it and got stuck. In my opinion, I think it's best to read it fast (though I know some people don't like that idea!) because it means I can hold all the story in my head at the same time - if I draw it out I forget what happened when and all the time threads get confusing!

[Heather]

I've read all of this book and found it was a 'cannot be put down book' an loved every moment of the book the way it was written was unusual but it didn't take anything away from the story.

[vinay87]

I adored the book. I read it in one sitting! I simply could not put the book down for those four hours. I couldn't make myself watch the movie because I did not want to hate even a little aspect of it. The story will be one to pass to the next generation and the next and the next. I swear I could manage a story that jumped like that. I never wrote a letter to any author but the first thing I did after reading the novel is send her an email telling her that I adored the book. I am most certainly looking forward to getting more of her books soon.

[miltenburg]

I have this and haven't started it, after reading this thread it is definately going to be next on my list!

Please do read it. It's one of the best books this decade.

[Nicola Booth]

I enjoyed this book so much that I read it twice.

Once a few years ago and then again when it was re-released because film was coming out.

[vodkafan]

I read this one too and enjoyed it. Heard the film was pants though. Some books are unfilmable I guess.

[lexiepiper]

I've seen the film and definitely wouldn't say it's 'pants', this is my fave book so there was no one more cynical than me when going to see it, but it doesn't change much from the book storyline wise, and it's done well I think

[runner]

I read it recently and you either love or hate it. I did not enjoy and prob just didn't get it it was however a very easy read and did have some lovely and touching moments...it's a pity they had to make a movie which from all accounts was very poor

[Jessi]

I found it a really enjoyable book (I read it over the space of a week). It definately has 'something' about it I thought.

[Lisa-Marie]

I bought this book about four years ago and it's still sitting on my shelf. I really should read it one day

[lexiepiper]

You should, it's fantastic
