Title: Wanted to like it, but didn't
Review: This book certainly came highly recommended and I think the author is definitely very talented and organized the book in a unique way. This is what kept me reading until the end. However, I came away from reading it feeling depressed. Some of the hardships faced by the main characters even brought me to tears, but not in a way I could enjoy. I had other issues with the book, too. The time traveler is severely flawed to the point that I found it hard to imagine any woman falling in love with him, let alone waiting around for him. I had to re-imagine an ending that would show the heroine moving on and living the full life she deserved. This book also rubbed against my personal sensitivity to the overuse of profanity, loveless sex and violence. Those who share these feelings may not like this book. Perhaps this is one of those books that one either loves or hates. That alone may be a sign of its success.
