Re: June - The Time Traveler's Wife
I don’t read books like this often, but every once in a while I love to read a well written and captivating love story as sort of a guilty pleasure. In this category, The Time Traveler’s Wife is one of my favorites!

It's been a while since I read this book but you guys are right, it's is quite disturbing that he visited her as a kid but then again he couldn't control it. Thank you guys, I would dust off my copy and read it againKEW wrote:I never thought of it that way, but now that you mention it, I have to think on this in more depth. Unfortunately, it is now past midnight here, and you introduced a philosophical and ethical question for me to ponder. This will make for another sleepless night, no doubt. My first thought, though, is he isn't controlling these visits, or at least that is not how I remember it, but then again, it has been a couple of years since I read it.stoppoppingtheP wrote:I read this book a while ago, and I found it very interesting yet weird at the same time, because of the fact that the wife (I've forgotten their names already) and the husband live their lives together but experience each other at different ages.
Also a bit weird that he goes visiting his future wife and hangs around with her while she is still a kid. What about her choice in the matter? What if she wanted a different life to the one fate had already planned? Did she have freedom of choice or was her future forced on her?
Anyway, thanks for giving me another spin on this story that I loved. Maybe, I need to add it to my list of books to read again.

To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
