The Deep is a must read book of the year. Fabulous characters and writing. But this book as a gift for friends and family. I could not put it down.

Everyone knows the story of the Titanic….or do they? On the day the Titanic sales, some of the passengers and crew begin to feel like something is wrong aboard the ship. For a few short days, unexplained deaths and strange occurrences convince them that the ship is haunted or possessed. We all know what happens next. Some years later, Annie, a crew member who survived the sinking is assigned to Titanic’s sister ship Britannic, now a hospital ship during World War I. She’s speechless when she encounters an old friend from the ill fated ship, a man who’s now a badly injured soldier. But is this a cheerful reunion or are they now facing the fate they escaped in April 1912? This story is a clever riff on the Final Destination theme. Do we each have a date with death, one we cannot cheat? Adding the most famous shipwreck in history makes this a wild, crazy ride

Wow!! Never have I read a novel like this! Kept me up until 3 am finishing this tale.
I always love when Titanic is the backdrop of the story!! And to add to the double pleasure of HMHS Britannic making her appearance too!
I loved the way the author could make me feel like I was aboard both ships.
How awful it must have been to be a survivor of Titanic and have to live with that the rest of your life!! I simply couldn't imagine that!!
And the poor ship!! Imagine how she felt while dying right along with her passengers! Such a terrible death and very unnecessary but we have learned from it.
I feel like the Britannic had her own personality as well! She was originally named Gigantic but I'm so glad they changed her name!!
Not much is written in fiction with this ship as the backdrop so I was surprised and delighted. I think when the book comes out I'm going to recommend this book to my son since he loves Britannic.
The only thing I really didn't like about it was part was told in present day tense and the other half like it was told yesterday. I'm guessing that this is called past tense which is my 2nd favorite after 1st person.
All in all kind of creepy if you ask me but I'm guessing that's what the author has intended.
I enjoyed the certain scenes that made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.
I think this would be a good movie!!
Well written to my way of thinking!!
My thanks to Netgalley with no compensations received and all opinions are my own
P.s. I love the cover!! I'd know my ship anywhere!! If you want to know more about Titanic go to Pigeon Forge to Titanic museum. It's amazing!!
