The Lake House

A lonely architect moves into a glass house by a lake and begins exchanging letters through a mysterious mailbox with a doctor who seems to live two years apart. As their correspondence becomes romantic, they search for a way to meet while confronting the strange rules surrounding their connection.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy gentle, bittersweet romances with a fantastical premise and patient pacing, especially The Time Traveler’s Wife; Not for you if confusing timelines and sentimental storytelling quickly become frustrating.
