The Time Traveler's Wife

I feel like I can't give this book a fair rating because I am clearly not the audience for this book. But that's probably because I'm dead inside.

I found Henry to be a jerk and Clare to be so-close-yet-so-far-almost manic pixie dream girl. There are some real gross moments that are “okay” because time travel. (i.e. - him kiss her when he's forty-something and she's fifteen, but it's okay because they're going to be married.) The rules the author chose to follow when it came to time travel (everything has already happened therefore you cannot change it) also helps excuse the squickier stuff (him sleeping with her on her 18th birthday).

It was hard not to think of him grooming her.

So... yeah... I just don't buy the whole soulmate deal.
