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, 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. Told in Cecelia's imitable style, 'The Book of Tomorrow' is a mesmerising and magical story for this spring.

评分单纯论书名来看,本书似乎是魔幻题材的小说,然而作者名气确实不小,成名作《p.s:我爱你》便是大名鼎鼎,更无论其前爱尔兰首相千金的名头。 如果只把青春写成魔幻,那显然只是为小说添加了点儿不大不小的噱头而已,作者借青春期叛逆少女之生活际遇,以一本神奇的预言日记本为...
评分 评分 评分有人跟我说过:“算什么卦?如果他算得准,你什么都知道了,日子就没意思了;如果算得不准,你却信了,生命就被你辜负了!” 很多人都说,即使是命运,也是可以随心境和所为而发生改变的,就如我们可以根据“明日魔法书”所记载的明日要发生的事情,而做出一些改变结果的改变…...
