Let me start by saying that this is my favourite book ever. It is so easy to fall in love with each of the characters. It was difficult to start, as i often found myself flipping to the beginning of the chapter to find out who was talking at the time, and where in time they were. I'm surprised it's not bigger of a hit than it is. I can only hope that when the movie comes out later this year, it's popularity will rise too.
It's such a touching love story. I've never in my life found myself so attached to fictional characters, and so envious of the chemistry between them. I finished this book on a bus and was absolutely bawling my eyes out (definitely got stared at). Not only due to the ending, but due to my inability to cope with the fact that the best book I've ever read was ending. I recommend this to any girl who thinks that Twilight is a good love story. I've read all four of those books, and they don't even touch this. It reaches into the realm of scifi while still remaining believable, which is quite a feat. Oh man, I'm going to go read it again!

I absolutely loved this book. It took me a little while to get with the flow of the book because of all the jumping of time periods. But once I got into it, I couldn't put it down. It tells an amazing love story between Clare and Henry and you get really drawn into the characters world. I highly recommend this book: buy it, don't borrow it. It is that good!!

By the way, the movie is already in production. Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana will be playing the leads.

#1 NO SPOILERS
#2 do not read what Amazon says about this book because they ruin it

Don't try to treat this book like rocket science or the bible. It is fiction, and it is almost a love story. Nothing more.

This is the best book I have ever read in my life. And I've read a lot! I got so lost in this book that as we went on our road trip and drove for 2 days I completely had no idea where or when it was in the real world. When I finished reading it, I missed the characters.

Fabulous, thought provocing, loving and tender. Great for married women who believe they have found their true match in life.

PLOT without spoilers: This guy has a made up condition that makes him spontaneously time travel. He does not know where or when he will show up, and he can't take anything with him, so he arrives naked. Part of the book is from his point of view. Part of it is from the POV of his wife - imagine waking up at 2am and your husband is missing from next to you in bed, and he might be in 1890 England or 1972 New York City!

I'm sure it will be a movie soon.
