s/o Time Traveller's Wife (no spoiler)

Have you read the book and then seen the movie? I HATED the book. Well. Okay. Hate is a strong word. I had great disdain for the book until the last 75 pages or so. But the movie actually looks so good. Was it better than the book?

  • Haven't seen it or read it.  Just wanted to say Hi because I haven't seen you around in a while.

  • I loved the book, so I really liked it better than the movie. However, a friend of mine went to see the movie and understood it without reading the book. I don't know if that helps you, but it might be better on screen.

  • good. scared about the upcoming months but overall feeling pretty positive. What's going on with you, what are your next steps?
  • I started to read the book and it was too much to try to follow. About a year later I got the book on CD and LOVED it!! It was such a pleasure to listen too and I really enjoyed it. I haven't seen the movie yet because I'm waiting to rent it. Don't want to sob that much in public I know she suffers m/c in the book.

    Hey there. I'm SO glad that recipe is still going to good use! I like to pretend that I slave over a hot stove every time I make those Wink Thanks for the well wishes. Are you over here on TTTC now too? What's going on with you guys?

  • Loved the book, not as thrilled with the movie, but it was still great.
  • Loved the book, and enjoyed the movie. The book is tough to get into because it's a little confusing trying to figure things out and all the back and forth. I think I was about 100 pages in or so before I really got into it.

    I think seeing the movie might help with understanding the book when/if you read it, just so you grasp the concept of the time travel. Obviously there are things in the book that were not really touched on in the movie, but I was impressed on how well they made the movie. There were so many details in the book I was skeptical as to how the movie would turn out.

  • I haven't seen the movie yet, but I did try to read the book and I really had such a hard time with it. I did finish it, but it was a hard read.
