The Book of Tomorrow

The first time I picked this book up, I read one chapter and I decided that I hated the main character. She's a selfish brat, and she just annoyed me. So I decided I wasn't going to read it, and I almost took it back to the library. About a week later, I told myself to get over it and see where it would all lead. Maybe it would get better.... and O.M.G. IT DID!

I really loved this book by the end. There was so much growth of the main character throughout. Also, Cecilia Ahern was able to create so much suspense out of everyday, sometimes mundane events. Then towards the end, the big family secret pops in and you feel swept into the story of trying to figure out what her creepy aunt is hiding. The ending was perfect, but not cheesy as I feared might end up being the case. The entire book was an adventure.

My mind was completely changed about first person narration. I usually do not read it, but now I will consider myself equal opportunity. Thank you, Cecilia Ahern.
