"Let's Get This Party Started"

This book held my interest only because I kept expecting something "significant" to unfold. It was billed as a love story, but it didn't have the emotional bang that I would expect from a love story (Doctor Zhivago, Pride and Prejudice, Romeo and Juliet). So, maybe my expectations were too high. When it didn't pan out as a powerful love story for me, I then expected something wildly creative to happen in the course of Henry's time traveling, but again, nothing really changed from the beginning to the end besides Henry popping in and out of the present into the future and past, and a fair amount of self-indulgent sex. And, it's not the kind of book that I could enjoy reading simply for the pleasure of the writing. So, I found myself reading it for the fun of it, but it flopped in the category too, for me anyway. I'm curious to know what others thought, because I'm wondering if I'm too cynical, or if anyone else read it and thought, "What?!" With that said, I certainly do not regret reading the book. I like the fact that the family book club encourages me to read books I would not pick on my own. So, Kerri, I don't intend this to be intense critcism, but it is a book club, so we do need to fling some opinions around a bit to get things started.
