Somewhere in Time is a story about love that transcends the boundaries of time. Richard Collier, a man of the modern era, becomes obsessed with a woman of another time, a celebrated actress at the turn of the century. His fascination with Elise McKenna proves strong enough to physically transport him back to 1896, where he meets her in more than just his dreams. But how long can a relationship in time stay with the relentless tide of history?Grade: 97%
Additional Comments: This book was beautiful, set in a time similar, yet different than ours. I was crying so hard by the end of the book that I could barely breathe. The trick of this book is, though, whether or not you think Richard Collier really went back in time and found the love of his life. I won't let my personal opinion interfere, but do you think a man dying of a brain tumor found his true love in the final days of his life? Or, were they just hallucinations? Read the book and tell me what you think in the comments.
