Luck of the Titanic is a stunning suspenseful masterpiece. Directly addressing the racism not only on the Titanic, but also in the US with the Chinese Exclusion Act, I knew from the beginning that this would be emotional. But, y'all, I was not prepared. Stacey Lee delivers a setting that makes the gilded halls and freezing waters come alive. At the same time, Luck of the Titanic has fantastic characters nursing struggling flames of ambitions. The ways you want to root for Valora while being juxtaposed with that dread in your stomach.
Because we all know of The Titanic for a reason. Throughout the book, as the time ticks down, I could not put Luck of the Titanic down. As readers we witness Valora's plans, even if they're half baked, they're made of love and desire, ambition and family. It's so easy to empathize with her almost infectious determination.
