Read "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger

I just finished reading that- it was so interesting! I might compare it sort of to the feeling of The Notebook--- but different for sure!. It was so good and happy and sad and strange and everything!. A book that you could cry to, if you wanted to!.

The novel tells the story of Henry DeTamble (born 1963), a librarian at the Chicago Newberry Library, and his wife, Clare Abshire (born 1971), an artist from a wealthy family who makes paper sculptures!. When 20-year-old Clare meets 28-year-old Henry in 1991, he has never seen her before, although she has known him most of her life!. Clare's past is still in Henry's future!. Henry begins to experience the events in Clare's childhood at the same time that he experiences life with the adult Clare in the present!.

also as it happens to be- they are making this book into a movie for later this year- the lead character will be played by Rachel McAdams!. Crazy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Actually Twilight is just about Edward and Bella!. New Moon is about Jacob and Bella!. Eclipse is about Edward, Jacob, and Bella!. And I'm guessing that Breaking Dawn is about Bella choosing Edward or Jacob!. So, you'll get yourself into a love triangle if you read these books!.

I suggest a book called The Raging Quiet by Sherryl Jordan!. It's fiction but it's not unbelievable!. It's real life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am not sure how old you are, but a fantastic young adult book called Twilight is very popular!.

I am not sure if it is up your alley, but if you are ready for a unconventional, exciting love story, this book is for you!

I highly recommend it; I really enjoyed it, despite my skepticism in the beginning!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
