Book Review:By the Light of the Silvery Moon by Tricia Goyer


The Plot:
Amelia Gladstone's hopes are tied up in the Titanic--hopes for a reunion with her sister and an introduction to an admirer. But when she offers a spare ticket to a down-and-out young man, her fate is about to change. Quentin Walpole is stunned when a sweet lady secures his passage to America--and even more surprised to find his wealthy father and older brother on board the ship. Suddenly Amelia finds herself caught between the attentions of two men, but who should she entrust her heart to? As the fateful night arrives, will Amelia lose everything to the icy waters?

My Review: Amelia is on her way to America with her Aunt to meet a man she has only been talking with through letters. Her cousin got put in jail and is unable to make it on the ship. So as Amelia sees a man being taken off for trying to sneak on,she goes and gives her ticket to him. They were staying in second class. Unknown by her Quentin was from a wealthy family who has been living on the streets after a run of bad luck. Up in first class it turns out Quentin's Father who has been searching for him and his brother are also on board. Amelia has turn both men's heads. It was a nice read and it did keep me going to the end to see what would happen,but I didn't never really connect with any of the people in the book. It seemed kind of rushed. I never even really seen where Amelia and Quentin feel in love. I didn't really see that much interaction together that showed their strong feelings for each other. I guess it was just something you had to read between the lines. I did though enjoy reading about the titanic,as I have always loved to read about it. Overall it was a nice light read with not much going on throughout the book,but I really did love the part between the Quentin and his brother while the ship was sinking. I won't reveal that part so you can read it. It was a good story plot and overall I would give it around 4 out of 5 stars!

I received this book free for my honest review.
