The first article I found starts off with the author Olivia, Glazebrook speaking about an event that happened in 2002 with a supposed time traveler. This time traveler believes he came from the year 2256, but does not share the location of his “time craft”. This story holds an interesting truth about it… there is not any proof of his existence prior to the date he was interrogated, also how could someone turn $800 into $350,000,000 in 2 weeks? In the end he was tried as mentally unstable and arrested for insider-trade charges.

Olivia follows her retelling of a “time travelers” story by adding her thoughts on the newest time travelling fiction The Time Traveler’s Wife. She feels Niffeneger hit the time travelling/romance story head on; it was exactly as one would wish there life would be like in Clare and Henrys’ position. However that is the not the likely series of events and she does not touch strongly enough on the negative aspects of living that life. Everything is predetermined as far as Clare’s life is concerned, and Henry’s is guided by what Clare says. “A nightmarish idea” is the words of this critic. She enjoyed the book; it was a fairytale romance, but a very strange and weird topic.
Olivia looks at it much differently than the common reader and she breaks down the story line, as a person who is living in this life. Always feeling worried, expecting death, unhappiness, and always knowing what will happen next, until the preset path alters.
