Sisters Delia and Nora live on a poor Irish farm with their parents. Both girls are offered chances of a lifetime in America and are both booked on the Titanic to get there. The sisters both survive but thier lives take very different turns.
When I was in my early teens this genre of book is what I would have been reading. Now I'm older I just don't get that spark that these types of book had back then.
This book appealed to me because of the title. I was expecting a story that revolved around the Titanic and it turned out not to. The story is what happens to the sisters afterwards.
I found this book an easy read. It did hold my interest at first but then after a while I was so bored. The situations that the sisters found themselves in I found predictable for the one and unbelievable for the other. Towards the end of the book one may say that the story picked up but for me I was past caring.
This genre of book is well loved by many with respected authors but for me it just wasn't what I want from a book.
Thank you to the publisher via Readers First for the book to read and review.
