The Time Traveler's Wife


    By Audrey Niffenegger.

Format.
    An Audiobook read by William Hope and Laurel Lefkow.

The Book in One Sentence.
    Henry DeTamble involuntarily travels through time and tries to live a 'normal' life.

The Good.
    Beautifully crafted characters.

The Bad.
     The bizarre dream sequences.

Who would I recommend it to?

    Anyone who likes loves stories with a scifi twist and/or bitter-sweet endings.

A Quote from the Book.
    "I sleep.  I inhabit sleep firmly, willing it, wielding it, pushing away dreams, refusing, refusing. Sleep is my lover now, my forgetting, my opiate, my oblivion."

Verdict.
   A worthwhile read.  Lots to like here.
