    I was given this by a friend after she read it. It was a great read, I really couldn’t put it down. It had my heart racing in places . I cried tears of joy and sadness .

    I couldn't put this book down!

    I felt so connected to the characters in this books that I got sucked right in and could hardly put it down. It's a touching, sweet, and heartbreaking story. Very original idea and very creatively plotted. I would read books from this author again. Definitely would recommend. (although I would NOT recommend the movie.)

    I loved this book so much, it had me right from the start. It's a huge book but I finished it in just a few days as I couldn't put it down. Great story!

    One of the best books in years

    I absolutely loved this story the author did an excellent job at keeping the time travel easy to follow. The characters were likeable and the story was intense and I didn't want to put it down. I didn't think I would like this book because of the time travel aspect, science fiction doesn't really interest me. But the story was very well written and worth the read.

    I'm not big on romance novels, but because this had a fantasy/sci-fi element to it, I decided to pick it up. I think this is one of the more unique and enjoyable romance novels on the market, and one which I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

    Because of the time travelling element, this story is fairly non-linear. It jumps around in time, but the writer makes it easy to follow along with the sequence of events. There's a wonderful emotional core to the story, which really helps to connect the reader to the characters and what happens to them. Everything is fully fleshed out, which is important when the focus moves from one point to another quite easily.

    This book also spawned a film adaptation, but I personally enjoyed the written version much more. Even if you're not much of a romance reader, this has enough to offer in other aspects that I think casual observers can still find something to like.

    This is a nice book, very emotional, beautiful story. I don't think I will read it again though. It just didn't hold my attention that much

    I read this book years ago, and enjoyed it. I picked it up again recently after talking to a friend about it, and gave it another read. I enjoyed it SOOOO much more the 2nd time around...maybe because I had an idea of what was happening, so I was less confused.
    I love the concept of time travel, it's always intrigued me. And I love a book that can make me have a good cry. This one had that...in spades!
    No matter how well written a book is, I have to like the characters. And I did! I LOVE Henry and Claire!
    One piece of advice...don't watch the movie before you read the book... it's terrible!

    I loved this story so much. Firstly, what an interesting concept - time travel! The story line is really interesting and captivating. the characters are wonderful and draw you in...you can't wait to see what will happen to them. It is a truly beautiful piece of literature and the love between the husband and wife is beautiful as well. I have read it a few times and will likely reread it in the future.
