Summary

The magical and mesmerising story of how tomorrow can change what happens today.

Tamara’s childhood. With her mother shut away with grief, and her aunt busy tending to her, Tamara is lonely and bored and longs to return to Dublin.

When a travelling library passes through Kilsaney Demesne, Tamara is intrigued. She needs a distraction. Her eyes rest on a mysterious large leather bound tome locked with a gold clasp and padlock. With some help, Tamara finally manages to open the book. What she discovers within the pages takes her breath away and shakes her world to its core.

Told in Cecelia’s imitable style, The Girl of Tomorrow is a mesmerising and magical story for this autumn.

I have listened to this book a few times. It's fantastic. The narrator is so easy to listen to.

Very enjoyable.

It took sometime to adjust to the speed of the narrator but having done so, the story plot got better and better. I struggled initially to get in to the characters but then, after a few chapters, my imagination was caught up and I looked forward to listening.

No surprises

The narrator was incredibly fast, so much so I had to put the listening speed at 0.95 - still fast but any slower slurred the words.
Nothing new in the story, I’d call it a plodder as by halfway through you can guess what is going to happen.
I’m normally a big fan but this one was just ok. Perhaps if I had read the book instead of listened it may have been better.

Superb narration of an intriguing story

Intriguing story, superbly narrated. Thanks to the combination of story and narration, I sped through this in a day and it’s definitely one of the better told stories.

Best Ahern Book So Far!

I loved this book. It was so very much better than Cecelia Ahern?s normal stuff, which I find soppy and un-original. This book was edgy, the main character although a teenager was great, you believed her tragic life events and how she dealt with them. Don?t be put off by the idea this book is about a ?Magic book? it has so much more going on and the characters are complex. The story is not predictable like a lot of her other books and I was hooked until the end.

Not a patch

Not a patch on her other ones that I enjoyed immensely, doesn’t wrap up details at end either
