11. The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger


The Time Traveler's wife is a love story about Henry DeTamble and Clare Abshire. Henry has a genetic disorder that causes him to travel through time at random. Clare first meets Henry when she is six, and Henry is thirty six. Henry frequently visits Clare when she was a child and she grows up knowing that one day they will be married. Their timelines converge, they get together, they fall in love (although Clare has been in love with Henry since she was a child), and they get married. Clare and Henry go through a rough couple of years while Clare goes through miscarriage after miscarriage. And if I say anything else I am going to completely ruin the book and probably cry. I loved this story and now it's time to watch the movie!
