Tomorrow Is Today: A Tempest Series Bonus Short Story (The Tempest Trilogy) Kindle Edition

by Julie Cross (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

The year is 2009. Nineteen-year-old Jackson Meyer is a normal guy… he's in college, throws lots of parties, is interested in a girl he can't have, and oh yeah, he can travel back through time.
But it's not like the movies – nothing changes in the present after his jumps, there's no space-time continuum issues or broken flux capacitors – it's just harmless fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review From Gypsy Book Reviews

Tomorrow is Today is this fun, prequel short story to Tempest, the upcoming (fantastic!) time travel novel by Julie Cross.

Since I've already read Tempest, I understood the time travel. Cross doesn't explain time travel in the prequel, so reading the first four chapters of Tempest could benefit those who want to read Tomorrow is Today. (Those chapters are included in Tomorrow is Today, after the short story, and also available here.)

Nothing major happens in Tomorrow is Today beside a missing kid and Jackson finding out Holly has a boyfriend. But it was a fun read and I'm dying to find out how Jackson finally got Holly... because there IS a gap between Tomorrow is Today and Tempest. And I like it when the guy wins over the girl. :)

I recommend Tomorrow is Today to those who have read the first four chapters and want to know more about the Tempest world. Technically Tomorrow is Today goes backwards from those first chapters, but it makes sense if you read them first then the short story. (HA HA REAL LIFE TIME TRAVEL.)

Tomorrow is Today is a prequel short story to Tempest. It was actually released over a month ago, but I had not heard about it until recently.
The story covers the period between 14 May 2009 and 8 June 2009 (Tempest begins in September 2009). It is set before Holly and Jackson get together. Holly is still with David. Adam and Jackson are just fooling around with Jackson's time travel ability with little consequence. It is unclear how long they have been experimenting, but it seems to have not been long.

I really enjoyed this short story. It allowed me to dive back into the world of Tempest sooner than I thought I would. There are some bittersweet moments throughout it.

Tomorrow is Today also includes the first four chapters of Tempest and I agree with Julie Cross that readers should read those chapters before the short story because it will give you a sense of how the time travel works, whereas Tomorrow is Today does not.

Recommended for fans of Tempest!

3.0 out of 5 stars I read this after reading an advanced copy of Tempest.

I wanted to chime in my two cents on this bonus short story from the point of view of a reader who has already had the opportunity to read "Tempest". "Tempest" was positively delightful. I enjoyed it very much and give it about a four star rating. I know that I will actively seek out any more books in this series. I loved the characters and the story is very uniquely woven. However, this short story was unimpressive in comparison. Actually I am very glad that I read "Tempest" first or I might not have gone on to read it and I would've missed out on such an exciting book. "Tomorrow is Today" isn't bad. But I think that it doesn't do a very clear job of explaining the time travel and Jackson's abilities. The short story actually tells of how Jackson came to begin dating Holly whereas in "Tempest" the two are actually already a committed couple. There is little excitement in this short story. In fact the most entertaining bit involved a child getting away from their camp group (where Holly and Jackson are counselors) and Jackson tries to use his time travel gift as an aid in finding her.

I think that although Tempest is a good action story, it really won me over by the depth of the characters and their relationships. Jackson and his sister. Jackson and his father. Jackson and Holly. They were realistic and they were beautifully illustrated. In "Tomorrow Is Today" there isn't enough space and time to get into all that. The story feels like the vaguest hint of whats to come and as I knew what Cross did with the initial book, I was left somewhat disappointed. That said, the story is free. It was nice visiting with the characters again. Just don't let this book influence you negatively. I would hate to see a reader not enjoy this story and then miss out on "Tempest".

Sometimes I love shorts because they give me that extra little peek into the lives of characters I adore. And then there's those times when I love short stories because they save me from committing to a full-length novel I won't enjoy. That, for me, was Tomorrow is Today.

Jackson and his recent friends Adam and Holly are training to be camp counsellors for the summer. He's just finished his freshman year at NYU, while Adam and Holly have just graduated from high school in Jersey. Adam is helping Jackson document and perform scientific experiments to explore his time travel abilities, while Jackson is busy lusting after Holly. Jackson and Adam are hoping to find out more information about why he has the abilities he does, and also what the limits are.

When I heard of Tempest, I was super excited. I'm a massive time travel geek and absolutely could not wait to check it out in YA form. But given the preview I was provided through the short story, Tomorrow is Today, I've determined it's not going to be the story I was hoping for. I was looking for it to have a good male point of view, be action packed, and a cool take on time travel. I wanted more sci fi, and less romance. It seems like it's going to be fairly romance-centric, I didn't like Julie Cross's writing of Jackson (yes, some authors can write wonderfully from the perspective of the opposite sex, I do not feel like this was happening here), and the time travel aspect seemed iffy. I found myself peeved by the dialog, and Jackson seemed like a bit of a douche. So I'm sorry to say I will not be joining the crowds of people who have adored Tempest as I had to force myself through the 60 or so pages of this short. I do think that a lot of people will really enjoy this book, many of you have, but it's just not going to do it for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Conto que antecede a trilogia Tempest

O livro conta a história de como Jackson Meyer conheceu e se encantou por Holly. É um pequeno conto que antecede a história da trilogia Tempest. A trilogia é genial, mas esse conto fica um pouco a desejar por não trazer nada de novo. Só vale para os fãs trilogia sobre viagens no tempo! Não deixe de ler a trilogia Tempest!!
