In general not a big fan of time traveling themes and this book was not what I had expected. This book somewhat was standoffish with the whole 'meeting his wife while she was a kid and he was grown up man' idea. But it is a romance book nonetheless. The ending was somewhat sad and touching.

Interesante forma de contar la historia... saltándose todas las implicaciones que significa que una persona pueda estar en el mismo tiempo y espacio dos veces...

This wasn't my thing. I enjoy slice of life but this was a dull picket fence, 2.5 kids, dog, rigid gender norm structure that I have no interest in. The time travel aspect just gave me an overall creepy vibe, as in pedophilic not an exciting murder novel. Now if Henry was time traveling to murder now that would have been more interesting. Can someone write this parody? If you want a good time travel book just read 'The Time Machine'.

Weird. The man meeting his wife when she was a child made me feel a little sick, especially since he knows she will become his wife. The rest was fine.

I'm about ready to give up on this book. The characters are dry, flat and impossible to relate to. This is another case of the best seller list-like the Da Vinci Code, just because this book is popular doesn't mean it's any good. The beginning was enjoyable when Henry meets Clare when she is a girl. After they meet as adults, their relationship turns into a stuffy college infatuation. Overall, I'm really disappointed
