The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
3.0
I love the idea behind the story. I'm a sucker for time-travelling.
For the most I liked the story, I had a bit of a trouble relating to the main characters because they were so co-dependent on each other, to the point of it being really bad and felt worried about the save-being of their daughter.
I also thought the book should have ended a bit earlier, the last 10% of the book were too much. And the saddest part of all was the ending. It was probably supposed to be romantic but the woman had obviously spent about half her life waiting for a man. How sad.
Another thing is that the time traveller was an adult, but Clare was a child when they met the first time. It felt a bit like "grooming". This old man had this kid under some kind of spell, raising her to become his wife. icky.
