What an incredible, intriguing, and fun story! This book creates a unique spin on the original story of the titanic. If you read the author’s note, which I highly recommend doing, it contains some information about the Chinese passengers originally aboard the titanic and the lack of information about this group. I found it fascinating that Stacey Lee was able to take a small bit of knowledge and weave it into this beautiful tale. You will find that throughout the story, there are small bits of information about Chinese history and culture, which I found to be incredibly helpful and fascinating. There were so many things I didn’t know and I enjoyed that I was able to learn about Chinese culture in a fun book! I hope that it creates a stir amongst people to research more about the Chinese passengers of the titanic.

I really enjoyed the story itself and found it to be the perfect amount of drama and fun. And while I know the story of the titanic and knew at some point there was going to be some heartache, I wasn’t expecting it to hit me that much! The characters were great and I felt that each personality helped to lend to the story as a whole. I highly recommend reading this book!
