Journal Entry 18 by karendawn from Lafayette, Indiana USA on Wednesday, February 09, 2005

The book arrived today. Thank you! This semester isn't giving me as much time to read as I normally have, so it might take a little longer for me to get through this, but I will do my best to get it read and back out soon (usual for me is a couple of days, so this might be a week or two or even three, but I hope not). 

Journal Entry 19 by karendawn from Lafayette, Indiana USA on Sunday, February 13, 2005

So it didn't take as long as I thought that it would to finish the book. I stayed up until 2 am last night finishing this book. I really didn't mean to, but I literally couldn't put it down. (But now I have a ton of work to catch up on today!)

I tried not to use too many spoilers for those who haven't yet read the book, but this does contain some, so be warned:
I sobbed and sobbed at the end of this book. I got so attached to these characters and their relationship. I struggled with them throughout their lives. And I hoped and hoped that they would be able to find a way to change what had already happened, but of course they couldn't. So it was even more heart-wrenching to see that they were powerless to stop it. I really wasn't expecting to enjoy this book this much, so it was a very pleasant surprise. Thank you so much for sharing it!

I will get this in the mail as soon as I receive teenage-faerie's address.

Journal Entry 21 by teenage-faerie from Dandridge, Tennessee USA on Friday, February 18, 2005

i have 2 books to finish up first and then i'll get to this one. shouldnt take too long. 

Journal Entry 22 by teenage-faerie from Dandridge, Tennessee USA on Wednesday, March 30, 2005

first off,i apologoze for keeping this one so long! i was tempted to release it before reading but i can never do that. hehe. i was really surprised with this one! i wasnt expecting much but as soon as i started it,i couldnt put it down.
it was really good. i loved the way it was written in 2 different perspectives. this made it move along better. since it deals with time travel,it is hard to keep up with the story since the time is constantly going forward and backward.

great read! releasing soon. 

Journal Entry 23 by sweetpea0678 from Saint Petersburg, Florida USA on Wednesday, April 13, 2005

Got the book today. Will read as soon as I am finished with the other rings that are here.

This was in my PO Box when I finally got there yesterday, thank you for sharing! I will start it right away and move it along as soon as possible. Looking forward to it! 

Journal Entry 26 by MazieNH from Hooksett, New Hampshire USA on Tuesday, July 05, 2005

Wow. I had high hopes for this book after hearing a little about it and seeing many people's reactions, but I don't think I even expected to enjoy it as much as I did.

I thought this was a very well written book, both in terms of style and content. The narrative kept me hooked from minute one, and I can't even imagine how tough the plot/timeline must have been to weave.

I really connected with these characters and their situation and found the whole idea of the premise intriguing. I think the best science fiction novels are ones that bury their "gimmick" in a truly excellent story and this did that SO well.

Thank you for sharing, I think I may have to buy a copy for my permanent collection and one to lend out to friends.

PMing the next in line for an address to send this along...
AceofHearts asked to be skipped 7/6 , PMing next in line....
No response from SusieQ76 as of 7/14 so PMing next in line

On it's way to Flicki in Germany 

Journal Entry 28 by Flicki from Emden, Niedersachsen Germany on Saturday, October 22, 2005

Arrived today, thanks a lot! I started reading right away and find it great so far! Gotta get back to it now! :-) 

Journal Entry 29 by Flicki from Emden, Niedersachsen Germany on Sunday, October 30, 2005

Wow, this was the second book of all times that ever made me cry!!! It's sooo sad! And sometimes it's just quite amazing, for all these tracks the writer had to keep in mind. Some questions, however, are still open.

Where does the knowledge come from if the old Henry teaches the young Henry and the old Henry knows because he was taught as a young boy?
I also wonder about the practical side of carrying ANYTHING with you if you're about to vanish anytime. Would Henry actually be so careless to carry a full wallet with him? Does he carry a passport? I mean, he can hardly go back to a restaurant where he suddenly disappeared, leaving his clothes and ask for them, can he? And then again his body is also matter - how come his body is traveling but nothing else?
Also: If time really is circular, as suggested in the book AND there is no parralel time, then there is also no free will in the present, not only none in the future or past. Sorry for that. :-)
Oh, and how does Henry know when he will come to visit Clare or Alba? He's making LISTS for them!

But I guess these questions always arise in the field of time traveling. Does that mean that time traveling is not possible?

Let's see in 2053! :-)

Hoping to send this out soon, forgot to ask for the next addy so far, but will try to hurry up now as I'm traveling to France on Wednesday.

PS: RoryG wants to be skipped (Oct.30th)

This is one of the best books I've ever read. I was totally enthralled with the dynamics between claire/future harry/present harry.

My husband will read it next.
