latest read - the book of tomorrow

Another from my collection of Cecelia Ahern.


This story revolves around a 16 year old girl names Tamara Goodwin who is a spoilt, rude and inconsiderate girl. Her "perfect" world was shaken to its core when her father committed suicide leaving behind huge debts that caused her mother and her to even lose the house they were living in. They both had to live in charity with her aunt and uncle in the suburbs. It is there that she learns the truth about herself.
The Book of Tomorrow is actually a diary which she found in a moving library. This diary writes itself. Entries are written by Tamara of what has happened the next day.
The build up of the mystery surrounding Tamara are well written. However, the ending and the final revelation of all the secrets happens in the last few pages of the book. I could have easily just read those last pages to solve everything with the book.
