I read 'The Time Traveler's Wife' about a year ago and the mention of it still haunts me. I'm not sure how many books I have read in my lifetime, but on the short list of those that have changed my life, 'The Time Traveler's Wife sits firmly at number one. Henry, the protagonist and time-traveling librarian, is one of the most fascinating - and flawed - characters I have ever fell in love with; and Henry's fragile wife Claire is - second only to Elizabeth Bennett of 'Pride and Prejudice' - my greatest literary hero. It is most difficult to put down, and the sense of urgency is overwhelming. (I found myself reading faster ahead than my brain could comprehend.) Every time I come across the cover in Borders, I'm envious of anyone who has yet to read this gem. Do yourself a favor and push 'The Time Traveler's Wife' to the top of your list of summer reads.
