The Book of Tomorrow by Cecelia Ahern
2.0
This was a really easy book to read but once I'd reached the end I realised that I actually didn't really like it that much. The main character, Tamara, was really self-centered and whiny and I didn't warm to her at all even at the end.
The 'mystery' aspect of the fire in the castle etc was left right to the end, and even the hints throughout were a bit too heavy-handed and rushed. There were casual references throughout but it only became obvious that it was a main plot point at the very end.
Roseleen's weird behaviour was more of an annoyance than an indicator of her involvement and I felt it was too repetative.
The mystical diary was supposed to be an important aspect of the novel but I felt that the few diary entries that were written down for us to read were really insignificant and seemed to lack any real purpose. Take out the diary and the majority of the book made sense.
Overall it was an easy read but nothing really happened and the characters were really flat.
