#1 New York Times bestseller and winner of the Carnegie Medal!

“A superlative novel . . . masterfully crafted.” —The Wall Street Journal.

Based on “the forgotten tragedy that was six times deadlier than the Titanic.” —Time

Winter 1945. WWII. Four refugees. Four stories. Each one born of a different homeland; each one hunted, and haunted, by tragedy, lies, war.

As thousands desperately flock to the coast in the midst of a Soviet advance, four paths converge, vying for passage aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff, a ship that promises safety and freedom. But not all promises can be kept . . .

This paperback edition includes book club questions and exclusive interviews with Wilhelm Gustloff survivors and experts.

Poll:\ \ Have You Been?\ \ After visiting Friends To Lovers, Jelaina and I began our walk to Old Town Books.\ \ \ \ Founded in 2018, Old Town Books is a large indie bookstore in Historic Alexandria that exclusively sells new books.\ \ \ \ There was a diverse range of books with nice displays.\ \ \ \ It is a beautiful space.\ \ \ \ I love seeing shelf talkers and what booksellers are recommending.\ \ \ \ They had a nice amount of romance too!\ \ \ \ I of course found Beverly Jenkins (if you're a bookstore reading this and you don't have any Beverly Jenkins in your store, what are you doing? And if you're a reader that likes romance and haven't read anything by her, go grab one).\ \ \ \ Anyways, I saw some other favorites. Love In Bloom is perfect if you enjoyed Lucy Score's The Things We Never Got Over.\ \ \ \ Jelaina and I kept walking and eventually entered Old Town Books Junior, the teen and younger section.\ \ \ \ It was so cute and welcoming to younger readers.\ \ \ \ I was happy to see Ruta Sepetys. I love her novels which are historic fiction. They have a ton of crossover appeal too. I read her in high school and still read her now. Between Shades of Gray shredded my heart along with Salt To The Sea.\ \ \ \ I left with a bookseller recommendation of Every Time You Hear That Song by Jenna Voris. Jenna Voris is also local to the store too! That was the end of our Apollycon bookstore crawl. I realize now that I forgot to take a picture of myself there!
