A well-written, pleasant (if at times surprisingly dense) novel! 
 In this sci-fi literary romance novel, young Clare is visited by time traveling Henry (the book's other narrator) as a child and grows up to become his wife after they meet in real time. While they should be perfectly happy (they fight a lot less than most literary couples) Henry's time traveling is involuntary, meaning he can be pulled away at any time. Understandably, this is a problem. And I guess a metaphor of some sort as well, but I'm going to be honest and admit it went completely over my head.... 
 While some have complained that the novel has a negative message, or is sappy/melodramatic, I overall enjoyed it. I also applaud the author for having the guts to bring out big issues (including but not limited to alcoholism, abuse, death, miscarriages, family trials, and extreme depression) in a novel that could easily have been nothing but a piece of bodice ripping woman's beach-read fiction and thus making it a story with depth. 
 A good read. May not be for everyone, but I liked it a lot, even loved parts of it; enough to add it to my favorites.
