I'll be honest, I did not go into this book with a lot of optimism. I don't do well with (sort of) contemporary to begin with and secondarily it was hyped by people who's tastes don't generally cross with my own. But I always try and do my best to read the books chosen by my bookclub, because I've found some surprising favorites over the years. 

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a love story, but not. It is also a historical fiction novel (though I'm sure that statement is inflammatory to the rest of my generation that is short-circuiting as I call the 90s "historical") but also not because although it's mainly 90s-early 00s, with some 80s, it covers things within the last decade as well. I'm still not entirely sure what the main point of the book was.
