Default The Time Traveler's Wife

(We shall call this book as TTTW for our personal convenience)

I bought the book last thursday afternoon, and upto saturday night, I'm already upto half the book.
And I must say its definitely sweet, romantic, and sad. Aimed for women. But as a guy, I'm loving it. I've never watched the movie yet because I am planning on finishing the book this week and come friday, I'll watch it with my classmates.

If I were to give a quick review of this book, it would undoubtedly be a perfect score, or at least almost perfect. I'm a guy and I love reading this book alot. If not for school and my thesis (yes, when you're a graduating college student, your thesis becomes another entity for you to mettle with) I would've been done by now, more or less.

To be honest though, one of the reasons why I bought the book was because I wanted to watch the movie, and I found the synopsis of the book to be very interesting. And here I am, halfway through.

If there would be anything I would learn after reading the book, it would be a deeper meaning to having patience with your love, and that waiting for your loved one is a stronger love than to just go with him/her because you don't want to part with them.

I first found out about this book through fanfiction. Na-touch ako dun sa fic, ang galing ng pagkakasulat, so hinanap ko yung reference nya. At ayun, jackpot. Loved the book eversince. <3

Nakakasenti lalo pag binasa mo siya while in the middle of a relationship problem, kasi mapapaisip ka, sana ganun yung wife mo, or future wife, if you're still single.


What does it matter that my love could not keep her.
The night is shattered and she is not with me.

This is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.
My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

Sadly, yes, bihira na lang ngayon yung nagmamahal not for personal gain. =\

We're a dying breed.
