Luck of the Titanic by Stacey Lee
2.0
2.5 stars.
this just didn't give what i needed it to give. i was bored for 75% of the book and the ending just couldn't save it for me. i'm really sad because i find the titanic such an interesting subject and i was really looking forward to reading about the eight chinese passengers, but the plot just went so slow and it really wasn't working imo. but regardless of that, i will say all of the characters are lovely and the last chapter did have me reeling (plus the epilogue? CRYING ABOUT IT THANKS)
anyway i think this is a more 'it's not you, it's me' thing so take my review with a grain of salt. i think if i was more of a historical fiction girlie i would've liked this better but it's just not my thing tbh
