What did I just read…? I can’t tell you anything that happened in this book. To be fair, maybe I just didn’t get it? But I’m disappointed because Tomorrow, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow was one of my favorite books from last year.

I definitely agree with the GoodReads description that this book is similar to The Time Traveler's Wife. I liked it even better for the fact that it was a lot shorter. It presents the idea that we are many different people or personalities throughout the stages of our lives. I'm glad the author was a woman and not a man or else I might have been offended by the idea that every woman has multiple personalities. It's true, I just don't want a man pointing that out to me.
