The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger is first and foremost a romance book. It's your classic story of a boy and a girl falling in love, facing life together, and growing in their relationship with each other. But there's a huge difference that sets this particular love story apart from all the other typical romance books out there. Henry, the man in the relationship, has a condition that forces him to jump through time.

I heard about this book while listening to my favorite book podcast, Currently Reading. In episode 46, the hosts let their listeners recommend books, and this was one that was mentioned. I have been slipping into a mild reading slump lately, and when I heard about this book it sounded like the exact read I needed.
