Summary
This bestselling and innovative debut novel from Audrey Niffenegger explores the perfect marriage, one that is tested by challenges the couple can neither control nor predict. An imaginative extension of everyday life, the story asks: What if two people who loved each other deeply, married, and faced a life in which one person remained constant while the other slipped fluidly in and out of time?



A modern love story with a twist that invites us to linger over questions of how life and love change over time.

I nodded my head in agreement. I laughed. I cried. Interesting concept for the story and very well written. Very clear narration easy to understand even for not so fluent listeners.

I was disappointed in this book. It was boring and really had no point to the story other than the time travel that just seemed random jumping in and out of his own life. He never tried to fix or do anything other than be a downer.

Of course this is an AWESOME read and an awesome movie! I am a sucker for anything time travel! Add a love story in there and you’ve got a reader for life! ❤️

Made a decision to not finish this. It’s quite confusing as any time travel plot seems to be but I felt uncomfortable with some of the scenes in particular when he meets himself as a teenager and they ….. you can fill in the blanks! Also uncomfortable with the grown man version meeting his future wife as a little girl. Just didn’t sit right. The male reader is ok but the woman has a terrible winey American voice So be warned . Far better books out there.

This book was wonderful! I love period pieces and the back and forth between times. It's a very enjoyable listen.

I finished it but it was tortuous. I thought it could have ended at 8 hrs and was completely frustrated that I still had another 7 hrs to listen. narrators were good. the premise and listening to their issues was tedious. Their sexual encounters was not needed. I was disappointed that Gomez was a lowlife and she slept with her best friend's boyfriend - no remorse? Could not recommend this book.

What a wonderful love story. Beautifully narrated. And scary too. I never considered the horrors of unplanned time travel. In this, this story is unique. No machines, just genes. I would definitely recommend this.

I really enjoyed this story and they way they narrate through the two main characters. I watched the new television series first and it captures the main concepts of the book and the characters. The book goes further than the show, if you're curious what happens next If you like one, you'll probably like the other.

Not for me. I liked the switching narration between the two perspectives. It was interesting at the start but fell flat by the middle and by the end I just wanted it to be done.

it's a fairly sad book. it's good but I was hoping that at the end of the book I would find out really the reason why he was drawn to her. especially to her as a child. I understand that he loved her but I guess I expected a little bit more answers I have not seen the movie

This book is more like an erotica lol Im sorry but its true. I'm christian, a lot of references on god and religion that don't quite make sense that I found offensive and ultimately unnecessary. Rated r book and not for kids. Not really a beautiful love story just kind of confusing. Jumps around a ton and kind of hard to keep up, with a lot of useless information. I wouldn't recommend this book unless you like erotica. I honestly couldn't even finish up the book it is just way too sexual for me.

Very profound plot and the narration was warm and personal. I truly miss the characters, kinda like losing your best friend. I hope to find another novel to compare just so I can live another day. Maybe there's a little hyperbole there but I really liked this story. please read this book, I promise you will love it.

The narrator is terrific and I am sure the story would be enjoyed by many, but it isn’t my ‘cup of tea’.

I loved this book! The love between Clare and Henry was heartwrenching at the end and I couldn't help tearing up. Such strong love is beyond time and space. Wonderful narrators too!

This is a great story. This book is very hard to put down and very fascinating. The narrators are really great as well. This is a great story for those who think that Time passes by way too fast. It is one of the best science-fiction and fantasy books I have ever read.

The book is disappointing. I didn't like any of the characters, they were underdeveloped. Lacking depth.

If you’re into twilight or 50 shades of grey type of books, this one is for you. I found this to be creepy (grooming, borderline paedophilia), bloated (so many inane descriptions about nothing) and pointlessly name dropping to appear cool. This time traveling without control concept could have been an amazing book... but the writer is... not. And probably needs some therapy, it’s ok Audrey, we all need it, don’t be afraid to find a therapist.
