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!

Not the greatest

Review by Avikeshet

I don't really like poetry that much. It was a little boring. It was okay, just not really for me.
