One of my favorites to which I recently went back. It's a gripping story of a young man who initially seems to be suffering from a genetic condition affecting his memory but in the long run discovers this is actually a gift that allows him to go back in time and change the fate of the people he loves to the better.

Sounds cheesy at first but with every failed attempt he comes to realize that each action has unforeseen consequences he can't control and that eventually ripple through time. One question though: how come his journals still exist in the same format and with the same content even after he changes the past?
