When Henry time travels to Clare as a kid and teenager he's between 30 - 40 years old. He's such an all consuming part of her life that it feels manipulative. When she finally turned 18 Henry was like 42, oof that was an age-gap I didn't want to know about. Even as adults, future-Henry meddles with present day Henry & Clare's relationship. These moments pose moral questions that the author casually skips over.

And I also found it really weird that a 40 year old Henry was visiting a 18 year old Clare and had sex with her? The relationship between those two started out so groomer-y
There were parts that were beautifully written. The ending was beautiful and I really enjoyed Henry’s sections about his parents.

Henry and Claire are so annoyingly rich, and it shows in the way they talk and act. Sooo pretentious and annoying, they're horrible people.
Also, Claire is Catholic and it gets mentioned all the time. Abortus not being an option is said more than once. I can't decide is it trying to be critical of Catholic values or supports them.
Their relationship relies on you just accepting that they're destined for each other and love each other. Their whole 'chemistry' is that they grope each other any chance they get. They speak for barely 2 minutes and someone's hand wanders under shirt... I mean, they were fine when Claire is young but as soon as they meet up in present timeline it's just sex.
I know people say that Henry groomed Claire, but if anything, they groomed each other equally. Everything gets convoluted and mixed up when there's time travel involved. It asks is there a choice and free will or is everything already predestined to happen, so it will, undoubtedly, happen.
