I've just finished reading The Book of Tomorrow and I thought it was brilliant... It was like a modern fairytale and everything about it was magical- my next book to read will definately be another Cecelia Ahern book and it will probably be as inspiring and awesome as this book!

I just finished this book moments ago, and I loved it. I've read some of the reviews on here, and though I agree that Tamara's character was hard to connect with sometimes, I have to say that it was the mystery element of the story that really reeled me in. I couldn't get enough; I couldn't put it down. It was definitely an entertaining read for me, and I'm just sorry that I devoured it so fast. I'm a huge fan of Cecelia Ahern and have been trying to read all that she's written. Six down, four to go.

Ugh. I remain a HUGE fan of Cecilia. In her books, she opened my mind to a world I never could have envisioned. But this book was so awful. I'm deeply saddened. Tamara was just so foolish, and her family was beyond messed up. It was all too much. It was so messy. It made me sad. I didn't want to finish it, but I kept hoping it would get better... it didn't. I was so saddened. The main character, Tamara, is a confused teenager who starts to uncover the mysteries of her family legacy. During this process, she uncovers a book that shows what the future holds, and in a turn, she tries to change it based on the words of the book. This concept, had promise, but the execution is utterly awful. I never came to even LIKE Tamara. I didn't care about her, one iota. And because she was so lost and made such poor decisions, I felt no connection to her. She was just... pathetic. And in the end, I was angry, and wanted my money back for this book. I hope my daughter never meets a girl like this. Run Run as fast as you can from this book.
There are so many wonderful books by Cecilia, but this is not one of them. Please skip it.

The book of tomorrow carries within it an optimistic feeling that creeps in the reader when it is opened. Cecelia has always written books that are optimistic, indulgant and engrossing. This book possesses all of these properties along with the most beutiful touch of fantasy and a twinge of tragedy. But these thing wind up together to make the New York Bestseller books. This book was the best book i had ever read and I couldn't keep my nose our of it until it finished. Which means i finished it up in one day because it was so engrossing, The book of tomorrow has a meaning behind it, like all other Cecilia's books. It tells us to have faith in ourselves. And most importantly think about all the three, the past, the future and the present. They make up life. And they made up this wonderful book filled with magic sparks flies in every page.
Fictional fantasy is something that Cecilia tops in converting into black and white. Just like the harry potter series and the twilight saga. I always adored books with magic, myths, tragedy and adventure.
I's like to thank Cecilia Ahern for writing such an amazing book. This was the second one i had read after reading a place called here which was also equally good.
Cecilia has her own charm of writing a fantasy that no one imagines, and no one would imagine unless they contemplate over the bittersweet parts in her books. Which i always do. But still things aren't as anticipated, so the suspence in the air keeps the reader reading.
It's book that will stay with me long after i've finished reading the last word. A book that tought me to enjoy the present because even though the tomorrow exists, it controls the present with a toght grasp. It'll turn into something pleasent only when we enjoy the present.
P.S: has anyone read One hundred names becausei want to read this book but i'd like to know your views about it. Keep in mind that i' only thirteen right now with a heavy taste of literature.
