"Interesting story line. Takes a while to get into it, but once Tamara finds the Book of Tomorrow, the plot picks up speed and races to a conclusion. No big surprises, but lots of little ones. This book is housed in our library's adult fiction collection, NOT the YA collection."

— Syah, 2/16/2014" loved it alot, it kept me hooked and intrigued til the end. Ahern's book are like little nuggets of magic. "
— Marita, 2/16/2014" I love Cecelia Ahern's book, that's why I bought this book without even bothering to read the reviews. I was expecting a light, romantic chicklit. However, I felt that the book is a bit dark and heavy. Perhaps my expectations stopped me from enjoying the book. "
— Naj, 2/15/2014" I was really loving this book but I did not like the ending even though it suited the story "
— Halena, 2/6/2014" I liked this book, I liked how it was written.. the story line is confusing in many parts and I knew that there was going to be an interesting plot at the end, so I kept reading. I enjoyed it. "
— Sabrina, 2/2/2014" I went into this book thinking it would be a typical coming of age novel with a bratty teenager who learns a lesson and becomes stronger because of it. I was so completely wrong. I read this novel in about 3 hours and it is no quick read. I loved it. "
— Grace, 1/28/2014" Great ending. Took me a VERY long time to finish this book. It didn't keep my interest until the end. "
— Amy, 1/20/2014" Excellent book, a bit of mystery, a bit of magic, a bunch of drama. Granted, I'm a bit obsessed with anything Ireland, but the book was very well written. I especially like the character of Sister Ignatius. Check it out and let me know what you thought. "
— Karrie, 12/29/2013" Not as good as her other books. Interesting idea: What would you do if you knew what would happen tomorrow? How would you try to change it? Unfortunately, it takes about half the book to get into this idea. "
— Lee, 12/23/2013" Surprisingly gripping at the end. Thought it was going to be total bollocks but I actually enjoyed it overall. The writing isn't great but the story was pretty good. "
— Nicole, 12/15/2013" Enjoyed this book good easy read "
