Review by Barrie

I really liked this story because it takes you on a journey through the ocean on a cruise liner, and it shows you what it would have been like during that time period. It has a very engaging plot and it was a real page turner!

More drama than action

Review by pinkeys

This isn’t an action story. It’s like a dramatic movie about a girl who escapes the nazis on a ship. She doesn’t really understand what’s going on with the government leaders and war, but she was sad about about leaving her home. Then she meets a new friend on the ship and they get in trouble together. I know other people think this is kind of a boring book and if you are wanting an action movie kind of book this isn’t the one for you. I actually liked it.

Bad Book

Review by SDIAkidz5

It was long, drawn out and boring. Nothing really happened.
