sorry to start this so early, but had borrowed this from the library, and having trouble getting into it

i do have problems with anything sci fi anyway, i need to understand whats going on in a story

anyone read it and recommend that i persevere, its quite hard keeping up with him being all over the place in age and times

I read it a while ago - it took me ages. Really didn't enjoy it but kept going. I kept getting confused by all the time changes and had to keep looking back.

My son (22) and husband enjoyed it but my teenage girls didn't. Is it a 'man book'?

I'm glad I persevered as it was so unusual but won't be re-reading or attempting anything similar.

they are making a film of it so i do want to readi it, im glad im not the only one confused

thanks holly

I'm not a sci fi person either - but once I got into it I really enjoyed this book and have recommended it to other people.

I really enjoyed it DQ I'd say persevere with it

ok im going to try a few more pages tomorrow

thanks

Agree with you and the others. It's difficult to understand at first.
Once I had stopped trying to work out the time span and just went with the flow of reading it I strated to enjoy it.

turned out to be one of the best books I've read

This book really made me sit down and concentrate on it, I couldn't just flick through the pages like I normally do. I absolutely loved it except I did not understand the ending and needed a bit of help!

Funnily enough I was going to read it again but just can't find it!

Keep going DQ I am sure that you won't regret it.

I loved this book, so did hubby and many others who I have lent it to. Been a while since I have read it so will look forward to revisiting it for the book club.

I used to hate sci-fi but hubby got me into some really brilliant reads which are very good - strong male and female characters rather than just 'beings'

Happy reading all

what did you think True?

Honestly? was an ok read but I don't think it's one I'd have minded not reading. I did persevere as I don't like not to finish a book but to be truthful it wasn't as good as I'd hoped. May be because i tend to like factual (or stories that could be factual) rather than fictional ones.

Did you ever finish it DQ?

no, i got the audio cd from the library and have been listening on the way to and from work, some of it is great and i think...i like this...then i lose it on a boring part, or when there is a character im not really interested in

some of the story makes you want to read/listen on though, as you realise that older Henry knows some things that he cant tell Claire about her future, but sometimes that seems like a long way off before you are going to find out

im defintitely going to read it though, probably in the summer,

ok i read it...it got me hooked...loved it!!!

a great story that was different, i can see how others enjoyed it, like others suggested ..dont think too much about the time, just read the story

going to wait for the film now which should be out this year with a bit of luck
