Host Carolyn Posted November 22, 2020 #3 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I will.leave for now. Please post only LINKS to your Carnival review, not the review itself. Also any novels re cruising by title. Lots of time to fill these days for many of you! Thanks for your cooperation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

princess76021 Posted November 22, 2020 Author #5 Share Posted November 22, 2020 the first novel i'll mention (sorry it doesn't have cruising in the title but it is al about cruising) is by Mary Higgins Clark, All by Myself Alone Caribbean Cruising by Rachel Hawthorne the Last Cruise by Kate Christensen The woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware Dangerous Crossings by Rachel Rhys Caribbean Rim by Randy Wayne White Cruise Confidential by Brian David Bruns Ship for Brains by Brian David Bruns Unsinkable Mister Brown by Brian David Bruns and still on my bookshelf unread Sailing to Capri by Elizabeth Adler i hope these help the withdrawal a bit! if anyone wants to suggest more, i'm all ears!! hugs Nicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanmarcosman Posted November 22, 2020 #6 Share Posted November 22, 2020 (edited) I think Rachel Rhys got her inspiration for Dangerous Crossing from the movie with the same title starring Jeanne Crain which is available for free viewing on You Tube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1j9gdj_CnE&ab_channel=NostalgicArtStudio If the ship sets look familiar to you that's because they were previously used in the film Titanic starring Barbara Stanwyck and Clifton Webb. 20th Century Fox paid big money for those sets so they made sure to use them more than once.

pghsteelerfan Posted November 23, 2020 #10 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I've done three reviews of our last Carnival cruises and I'll attach the links to those. They are kind of long, with tons of pictures. I want to add that there are so many great reviews by others posted here as well with great writing and pictures. I'd love to name a few but also don't want to forget anyone either. They have all put a lot of time and work into them and I'd hate to list a few and have others not see theirs mentioned. There used to be a listing of each of the Carnival ships along the right side of the Carnival message board and it was so easy to find the reviews there, but I see that is no longer there. Here are the links to mine: Carnival Valor - Southern Caribbean out of San Juan (May 5, 2013): Valor Southern Caribbean review with pictures and Fun Times - better late than never - Carnival Cruise Lines - Cruise Critic Community Carnival Liberty - Western Caribbean out of Miami (April 5, 2014): REVIEW: Carnival Liberty - Western Caribbean - 4/5/14 thru 4/12/14 - Carnival Cruise Lines - Cruise Critic Community Carnival Liberty - Southern Caribbean out of San Juan (September 20, 2015): Review: Carnival liberty – september 20, 2015 – southern itinerary out of san juan, - Carnival Cruise Lines - Cruise Critic Community 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We watched this movie on You Tube last night - thank you! It was fun to see the differences in cruising (and in acting) and we enjoyed the story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're welcome. 1953's "Titanic" with Barbara Stanwyck and Clifton Webb is also on youtube for free and isn't just about the tragedy but is more the story of the troubled marriage of Stanwyck and Webb and their children. Look for Thelma Rita who steals the show. The screenplay for the film is adapted from several passenger ship books of both fiction and non-fiction which I think ties in well with the topic of this thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
