 Great book! March 25, 1999

I liked it a lot, I think I liked it so much because it was about the Titanic. I love SUNFIRE books, don't get me wrong, but this one was special. I also liked Amanda because it was based on a real thing. This book is about a girl whos mother is a snob and pretends that she's Nicoles sister and wants her to marry a rich guy but Nicole fell in love with Karl the handsome immigrant who has a bratty sister who hates Nicole, but later on Nicole and her become friends. Then the Titanic is sinking! What will happen? Read it and see!
 I could make a Titantic joke, but I'm going to resist February 11, 1999
This is the first one I read, back in 1990. Not one of the better ones, and not at all by Candice F. Ransom's standards, (She also whote Emily, Katheleen, and Amanda, among others) and I think the subject matter, to someone reading it post-December 1997, is a bit old. Titantic? Karl may not be Leo, and Nicole not Kate, but it's still not a bad book...
 Not one of the better ones. December 11, 1998

Although it was not a terrible book it was not one of the better ones. I found it very predictable and dull. It was about a rich New Yorker whos mother has spent the last of their wealth in buying tickets for the Titanic voyage home. On which her mother hopes for Diana to become engaged to the rich Price so as to restore their fortune, but Diana falls in love with Karl a poor immagrant. But before her mother excepts Karl the Titanic starts to sink! Will Karl and Price suvive? Will her mother? Will she???
A blast from the past September 7, 1998
I read this book ten years ago when it came out, I was in junior high then. Seeing the movie "Titanic" made me read it again. I loved it the first time and I love it again as an adult.
Many parallels between "Nicole" & the "Titanic" movie! February 17, 1998
When Nicole's father died, she & her mother moved to Europe to escape their unhappiness. Now, having "run through" their inheritance, her mother has spent the last of their money on 2 first class tickets on the Titanic. Once aboard, Nicole finds herself torn between Price, a rich young man in first class, and Karl, a young immigrant traveling in third class. Her mother wants her to marry Price so the family will have no further financial worries, but Nicole's heart is drawn to Karl. What kind of life & death choices will Nicole, Price, & Karl be faced with once the ocean liner strikes the iceberg?
