This book has a mixture of alternate history, fantasy, romance, and action all rolled into one book. The characters are well developed, and the author has done a wonderful job recreating the battle against Napolean using magic as the main source of defense. I highly recommend this creative & very original novel…it is unlike anything I have read before.

I loved this book. Anyone who has ever felt a desperate longing for another person will relate to Clare’s character. Niffenegger has created such well-developed characters, it was difficult not to fall in love with them. She did a wonderful job of integrating the time traveling aspect – thoroughly believable & very creative!

This book is very brief, but very effective at relaying the horror of the Holocaust. It is unbelievable how cruel & heartless human beings can be.

Still one of the greatest horror flicks of all time!

I’ve got to say that I didn’t really care for this book. Maybe something got lost in translation, but I didn’t like the style Arrabal used when writing it. Every chapter was 2 pages & I think a little more explanation was needed about what kind of activity the mother was making her daughter do at the furnace in the basement. It took until the end before I caught it, & even then I wasn’t sure.
