Wish I could rate a book more than 5/5, this book was amazing. Another book I picked up because it was featured for the VPL Summer Challenge, and I couldn’t put it down. It’ll keep you at the edge of your seat, eyes glued to the pages eager to know what happens next to the survivors of the ship, and to their families back home.
