Book Review of The Time Traveler's Wife

The Time Traveler's Wife

Helpful Score: 1


I didn't see the point. The book was interesting to read once you understood what was going on, but why did it happen? I kept waiting for the interesting thing we were supposed to learn. We could have at least learned why Henry travels through time, or why he had rules about it, or what lessons we could have learned from it. I couldn't see that there was a point. It just happens. Everyone who knows about it is fine with it. They don't seem surprised with it or ponder on it. They just accept it. That didn't seem realistic. None of his friends thought too much about it.
It was easy to read. It was kind of interesting. But, . . .so what?
