The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
5.0
A realistic approach to a fantastic story.
It simply starts with the idea of time travel - Henry travels through time having no control of it.
It then develops the story with an authenticity that is nothing short of captivating.
It manages to turn this surreal concept in a grounded realistic romance. I sounds exactly what it would be like for someone to be travelling through time but also for the (usually forgotten in these types of stories) person who stays behind waiting.
It is a heartbreaking story within a deterministic world which makes us want to believe that it can be changed.
Lovely writting, well balanced plot that makes you want to continue reading.
