A voyage across the ocean becomes the odyssey of a lifetime for a young Irish woman. . . . Ireland, 1912 . . . Fourteen members of a small village set sail on RMS Titanic, hoping to find a better life in America. For seventeen-year-old Maggie Murphy, the journey is bittersweet. Though her future lies in an unknown new place, her heart remains in Ireland with Séamus, the sweetheart she left behind. When disaster strikes, Maggie is one of the few passengers in steerage to survive. Waking up alone in a New York hospital, she vows never to speak of the terror and panic of that fateful night again. Chicago, 1982 . . . Adrift after the death of her father, Grace Butler struggles to decide what comes next. When her great-grandmother Maggie shares the painful secret about the Titanic that she's harbored for almost a lifetime, the revelation gives Grace new direction—and leads both her and Maggie to unexpected reunions with those they thought lost long ago. Inspired by true events, The Girl Who Came Home poignantly blends fact and fiction to explore the Titanic tragedy's impact and its lasting repercussions on survivors and their descendants.

Evaluation Appertaining To Books The Girl Who Came Home

This review contains spoilers in the second paragraph. Fans of romance novels might enjoy this book, but it wasn't what I was expecting and not my taste. As others have already said, nothing new was brought to the Titanic story and much of the plot followed the footsteps of the James Cameron movie. Long descriptive passages were often tedious and there was way too much repetition throughout the book. I found myself skimming entire paragraphs, which I almost never do. The worst part for me was

This was a sweet book about a titanic survivor and her great grand daughter. It definitely pulled me in but I found the characters to be a little flat. There is also a romance in here that didn't actually bother me too much (which is RARE for me). Also a nice little twist at the end that I didn't see coming.

Enjoyed this book very much... some interesting twists!

I just need to start this off by saying I thought this book was simply AMAZING!!!!! I love historical fiction, so I was pretty sure I would like this. And I've read another of Hazel Gaynor's books that I loved, so again I was pretty sure I would like this one. The Girl Who Came Home blew me away. From the beginning I felt like I was one of those girls from Ireland excitingly and bravely going off to travel across the Atlantic to America. As I was reading, I felt like I was the silly girl running

When the Titanic sank in April 1912, most of the passengers from steerage did not survive. This fictionalized story is based on the true account of the Addergoole Fourteena group of people from Lahardane village in County Mayo, Ireland. They left Ireland full of hopes to begin better lives in America. However, only a few survived to make it across the Atlantic.This poignant story combines fact and fiction and brings the story of one fictional survivor to life. Seventeen year old Maggie Murphy
