The Book of Tomorrow by Cecelia Ahern
5.0

Tamara Goodwin is a girl who has always gotten and received what she wanted. When her Dad commits suicide, she and her Mother lose everything and must move in with her Aunt and Uncle. Tamara is bored and lonely until she find a diary on the traveling library bus. In that book, she discovers what will happen tomorrow.

I really enjoyed this book. It had Cecelia Ahern's usual touch of magic and whimsy to it. This is a book about a girl who has always lived for today never thinking about tomorrow. She started having to think about decisions she made and how they would affect her and the people around her tomorrow. I liked how the mystery of her life and the things that had happened around her slowly unfolded. I also liked how she thought about how she was going to handle the next day when she already knew what could happen.

I liked the ending and the acknowlegement that all decisions we make even one made as a young child will continue to affect us and the ones around us for the rest of our lives.

I recommend this book to anyone who loves a good mystery with some life lessons involved. I received this book as a free giveaway in goodreads first reads.
