liv: Bookshelf labelled: Caution. Hungry bookworm (bookies)
Author: Audrey Niffenegger

Details: (c) Audrey Niffenegger 2004; Pub Vintage 2005; ISBN 978-0-099-46446-4

Verdict: The time traveler's wife is well-written but doesn't quite live up to its potential.

Reasons for reading it: There was a lot of buzz about it when it came out and it seemed like it might lead to some interesting conversations.

How it came into my hands: I grabbed it from a charity shop five for £1 table, which is a very good way of acquiring bestsellers from a few years ago.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
