Interesting and enjoyable but dragged in the middle
|
The concept for this book is amazing - time travel - what a ridiculous idea but it works incredibly well. The structure of the book is handled very carefully and there are no flaws in the movements in time.
After I had got my mind around the time movement concept and settled into the book, I then found myself waiting for something else to happen to take the story to the next stage and nothing did. I felt that the story was very lacking in the middle and only came back to life again at the end of the book.
The last 50 pages were really enjoyable to read. I found that I had been reading really quickly for a while up to that point as nothing new had been happening for some time and when I got towards the end had to slow down to take in the beautiful ending.
I am not simply looking for a thriller in a read but expected more to happen alongside the amazing idea of time travel.

FANTASTIC READ!

I have read this book twice.
I've read it a couple of years ago for the first time, and it was just sensational as many reviews said. The second time was when I was on my holiday in Italy about two weeks ago. I've got to warn you, once you start reading this book, you will find it hard to let it go until you finish it! :)
I just simply cannot tell you the story as it's too complicated. It's got to be read to understand the whole story as a big picture. As it's known to be made to a movie, I already wonder eagerly what the movie is going to be like. Better be a good one, although I'm quite skeptical that it will be good as the novel itself.
I loved it at the first time I read it, I loved it again at the second time, and I know I will love it still when I read it again!

Nearly perfect but still brilliant

This is a good old fashioned love story with a major twist, time travel. The concept for this book is unique and totally captivating. It starts with a bang and you fly through the first 200 pages, almost as if they are turning themselves. I thought it was going to be my new favorite book. Then unfortunately it lags for 200 pages with less time travel and more love story. The final 100 pages are back to the earlier top form and the book ends with a bang. I would wholeheartedly recommend for anybody really.
