Review by Alexa
I enjoyed reading this book as it was pacey and interesting. I like how throughout the book an unlikely group is formed and they face challenges together. The character I found most interesting in the book was Elizabeth who also goes by Babette because her character had many layers to her and was very interesting. In the book I learnt more about the divide between classes in the early 1900s and ways that different people were treated such as crew workers and first-class customers. I liked how throughout the book we see the main character notice things about other people although she isn’t believed because it lets me think for myself if what she thought was true. By having the villains in this story start off as friendly characters, Judith Eagle deterred me from thinking this. I also like how the character of Lilian is portrayed and her relationship with Etsy. Additionally, I liked how in the start of the book the main character meets the character of Turo and is later reunited with him. One thing I did not like about the book was how sometimes there wasn’t much happening and it was a slow build up to events however, I liked how fast paced and chaotic the end of the story is. I would recommend this book to people who like reading about the early 1900s and adventure stories.
