You can tell that a lot of research went into this, and I appreciated the different perspective this offered on the Titanic. Especially in the context of the author's note at the end, this whole story is facsinating. The characters are great and you're really immersed in this time period. You know how it's going to end, but you kind of hope something else will happen anyway. I feel like that with basically every historical fiction that I read.
Graphic: Death, Racial slurs, and Racism
Moderate: Confinement, Sexual assault, Xenophobia, and Death of parent
Minor: Grief
