pickThis Book was so creative and unique. If you love history, Egyptian Mythology, and the supernatural definitely read this book. It's no stereo typical story and will play on the strings of your heart.
Inspired by this book to be Vampire Cleopatra for Halloween #SupernaturalBeings #Booktober

pickFascinating read. Even the historical note at the end was interesting! It follows the story of Cleopatra after Octavian/Augustus comes to power. It explores how far one will go for the person or kingdom they love.
"Everything is true. Once a story is told, it becomes true. Every unlikely tale, every tale of wonders, has something real at its core.
This book is probably not something I'd pick up on my own. I'm really enjoying it so far (about 130 pages to go)! This story moves in unexpexted ways. Though I am no expert about the time period, it feels well researched and dramatized. It has even inspired me to go as Cleopatra for Halloween. #BookRiotLive #Cleopatra #ReadingOutsideYourWheelhouse
pickam doing a deep-dive into Headley's work, and this was a gory romp of a retelling of Mark Antony and Cleopatra's final days. i say "romp" because as violent & dark as this book is (VERY), it is also a ton of fun to read once it gets going.
