"The Time Traveler's Wife"
Finished it a few weeks ago. I actually read it twice in a row, I was so enthralled with the main character, Henry DeTamble.
I got a bunch of people from work to go out and buy it as well, and they loved it too.
Anyone else reading it?

I can't wait to see it.
I really, really loved it.

Eric Bana plays Henry & Rachel McAdams is Claire.





I loved the richness of the story. It really drew you in, and demanded your attention.

7. Yippee!
My husband read it first and then got me to read it, too.

I listened to it on the drive into town on a download from Audible.com.

A neat read.

10. I LOVE this book!
I've read it a few times.

So glad they are making a movie out of it!

Here's hoping it doesn't suck.
