| ''Overall, it seemed to me that the story was more about Mickaila's daily experiences and the time she spent with her newly found friend Brett, than with her mission. Her mission seemed to take a back-seat to trips to the beach, Disney, the movies and restaurants. Mickaila approached everything with a childlike innocence and Liebermann's writing flourished here. I enjoyed her description of Mickaila's awakening while in ''our time'' and believe this is a strong point in her writing. In the future, I think Liebermann should write descriptive stories built around a solid character and focus less on crafting stories around an overdone save-the-world plot.'' | ''Overall, it seemed to me that the story was more about Mickaila's daily experiences and the time she spent with her newly found friend Brett, than with her mission.

Tomorrow's Past, written by Jude Liebermann, is an all-encompassing fantastical story about one woman who travels back in time to prevent World War III. It seemed like a weak attempt to blend the stories of The Terminator and Back to the Future. The story is unoriginal, constrained and a basic attention to detail is missing.
Throughout the story, I found myself grow tired of the many conflicting details. An example is: Mickaila, our heroine, while waiting to complete her mission, ...read the dictionary and then had started on the encyclopedias. Then, only thirteen pages later, as she is standing in a fast food restaurant, she could not order a meal because ...she could tell it was English but not knowing what the words meant, she shrugged. As I progressed through the book and the discrepancies began adding up, I became tired of the conflicting details in the story.
Overall, it seemed to me that the story was more about Mickaila's daily experiences and the time she spent with her newly found friend Brett, than with her mission. Her mission seemed to take a back-seat to trips to the beach, Disney, the movies and restaurants. Mickaila approached everything with a childlike innocence and Liebermann's writing flourished here. I enjoyed her description of Mickaila's awakening while in our time and believe this is a strong point in her writing. In the future, I think Liebermann should write descriptive stories built around a solid character and focus less on crafting stories around an overdone save-the-world plot.
