Oh, Cecelia Ahern, how I love you. "The Book of Tomorrow" was unbelievably good. It was a modern fairytale. It was magical. It was mysterious. It was heartwarming and sad and funny and amazing. It was one-of-a-kind and spooky and I'm running out of adjectives here, so I'm just going to say that I really, really loved it.Cecelia Ahern's (still don't know how to pronounce her last name) books are really hard to explain. There's always this touch of magic in her stories, that makes the ordinarySixteen year old Tamara Goodwin is a very spoilt teenager who has everything she needs and wants and so much more. That is until the day her father commits suicide leaving her and her mother, Jennifer with nothing but debt. With no options left they are forced to live with Tamara's aunt, Rosaleen and uncle Arthur. Not long after moving in Tamara's mother seems to fall into a deep depression and she is unable to get out of bed. Tamara is concerned about her mother, but is told by her aunt that
"The Book of Tomorrow" is about a girl of sixteen years by the name of Tamara Goodwin. Tamara was brought up in a wealthy home and she was always spoiled.

This is a fairly light piece of chick lit, the sort of thing you might like to read on the beach on a hot summers day. It starts out a little dull but the story becomes more engaging as the book progresses. There are some oddities though. The character of Marcus with his travelling library seems to be an important thread but then it just dies away. Magic is introduced in the form of the fortune telling diary and I love magic but at the end the rather rushed and garbled explanations of all that
4 1/2 starsWhat a strangely compelling story this was.I was not crazy about this novel when I first started reading it. There was a Clueless (the movie) type main character, and there was some over-the-top flowery prose. Both left me cold. "The tree trunks were fascinating, aged and wrinkled like elephants legs. They twisted around one another like lovers. Some rose from the ground arched as though in agony and reaching out, then growing on, turning and shifting to a new position. The roots
