Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger
3.0

Fortunately, this book didn't go the way of Secret Life of Bees/The Mermaid chair. Ms. Niffenegger writes beautifully. Though I have not been to Highgate Cemetary, it feels as I have after reading this book.

Unlike the Time Traveler's Wife, I was unable to conjure up any real connection to the characters, with the possible exception of Martin, Mr. OCD.

I give a 5-star rating to the first 2/3 of the book and a 2 for the end 1/3. It's worth the read, just be sure to read some reviews before you commit to reading. Consider this your heads up.
