January 2011 Book Giveaway - The Book of Tomorrow; Cecelia Ahern

Leah W of Harper Collins has provided me with a great book to giveaway.



About the Book


Tamara Goodwin has always got everything she’s ever wanted. Born into a family of wealth, she grew up in a mansion with its own private beach, a wardrobe full of designer clothes, and a large four poster bed complete with a luxurious bathroom en-suite. She’s always lived in the here and now, never giving a second thought to tomorrow.


But then suddenly her dad is gone and life for Tamara and her mother changes forever. Left with a mountain of debt, they have no choice but to sell everything they own and move to the country to live with Tamara’s Uncle and Aunt. Nestled next to Kilsaney Castle, their gate house is a world away from 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.

    From the description, this sounds like a children's fantasy, but at the same time intriguing to an adult. How old is the main character?

    That does sound like another good read. If I'm lucky enough my e-mail is: luvinwildlife@gmail.com. If someone else is lucky, then I think I will buy this book anyway. It sounds intriguing. Thanks for another great book review. I've gotten back into reading big time thanks to you. I am on my fourth Louise Penny book. Love those characters. Ever so grateful :)))

    In December I enjoyed reading Jan Karon's 2010 novel In the Company of Others, which is set in Ireland. This is the first I've heard of Cecelia Ahern's Book of Tomorrow, but it's set in Ireland and has a traveling library, no less! I'd love to read it.
