Advantages: The reader become involved with the characters and you cannot put this book down!

Disadvantages: Some people say it's hard to read although I don't think they have given it their full time.

I read this book about a year ago and this year we started studying it for A-Level which was a big advantage!
This is such an original and unique book, one in a million, a book of this level, sophistication and originality is a very rare read!

The story focuses around the lives of two main characters, Henry and Claire. Henry is a time-traveller and the book deals with the issues this presents in his life and the impact it has on Claire and other around him. This is the first every book, not the only since but the first book that actually made me emotionally involved, making me cry, feel the pain and joy of the characters as I connected with them in a way I never have with another book.

It is beautifully written and although I hear some people complain that it is hard to follow, if you give it your time and patience it is a book that will transform your life, making you think differently. Hands must be clapped together towards Audrey Niffenegger who has truly written an amazing book of our time and although this novel is fairly modern, it feels like it is one of the most renowned books to be written.

Summary: An amazing book of the 21st century, a must read for everyone!

I saw the film this morning, it's not as much of a let down as I thought it might be...though an AWFUL lot is missed out. It's not as believable as the book.

I agree! The film looks good and I have been dying to watch it since it was announced, although people are saying it misses out alot of major scenes and the ending is completely different if you know what I mean about Henry. Thanks for commenting to! :)
