The book is experiencing inertia; a state which resists change in motion. This is represented by Newton's first law of motion which states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Therefore the book in the car continues to move forward until it is acting on by an external force such as the applied force of something in the book's path of motion.
