Comments on: the time traveler’s wife http://mixedupbeauty.net/2008/04/06/the-time-travelers-wife/ In which I work way too much, knit way too little, and obsess over Twilight and Outlander just enough.

I think the part that I'm stuck on is the ending, how after he died, Clare knew she wouldn't see him again until she was old...I really want to know what happened to her in all the years in between!

I agree that the story was very Henry centric, but then wasn't Henry's life really Clare centric? This book was a GREAT read.

It was one of the first books I read after The Series, looking for something like-minded to read. I too thought it took a while for me to get the hang of the whole "time-travel-Henry, Age-such-n-such", but I think that really went with the whole craziness and hectic-ness (did I just make that up?) of the story. BTW, a friend of mine whose an Outlander fan also recommended "The Eight". Personally haven't read it, yet, but it seems intriguing. I too LOVED this book.
