the time traveler's wife

After seeing the trailer for "The Time Traveler's Wife," which is based on a novel by Audrey Niffenegger and stars Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana, I was intrigued by the plot of the movie: a woman and a man in love, but because he travels through time, she never knows when they will be together - or for how long.

One of my weakness is, well, anything that has to do with a love story. So naturally, I decided that I would have to buy the novel and read it before I saw the movie. And soon.

I started reading the novel on the drive home from Toronto and haven't been able to put the book down since! I'll be sure to give you my final thoughts on the novel once I'm finished.

I'm currently close to being halfway through the novel, and absolutely cannot wait to see the movie after its release next Friday. Of course, the book will seem better to me than the movie - I've always believed the scenes my mind creates while reading are always better than any Hollywood adaptation. In any case, it's fun to compare the movie to what you had imagined the scene would be like while reading.

Do you try to read the book before watching the movie like I do?
