Welcome to Litsy!

Pompeii - yes I found my photos from my last trip - il post some more ! Go go go ! And read wolf den what an amazing 🤩 page 📄 turner can‘t believe I had it on my TBR for so long !! Thank goodness 😅 there‘s now 2 more in the series . @TheAromaofBooks it‘s thanks to bookspin bingo I got around to reading this wonderful book 📖 thank you ☺️😘

Wow! Didn‘t work on audio for me but reading it blew me away. what a wonderful sweeping saga . It also helps that Iv been to Pompeii 4 times and have visited the brothel seen the stone beds and the murals and the house with the faun fountain (still in tact ) an amazing story really doing justice to what our sisters had to endure 😣and to the legend of Pompeii if you‘ve never been you really must put it on your bucket list it is Atlantis.fantastic

On my TBR for yonks and started this evening it has great reviews in the times and im surprised it‘s not more widely read on here. Wish It had been published when I was actually in Pompeii in 2017 ! We did go into the brothel the stone beds were tiny and stone !! Not very comfy and the murals still painted on the walls , so a punter would come in and ask for one of the numbered murals 😖those poor poor women ! Anyway it‘s a slow start,let‘s see

This was good! It is quite a tough read though. The reality of Pompeij brothel is brutal but I was happy that it wasn't toned down or romanticed. Characters were well written and I loved the description of the women's friendships. I think this book handles the topic of slavery and ownership of one's body really well. The story followed the route we walked through Pompeij last year when we visited there. I remember a lot of the locations.

Started reading this. It feels quite brutal. I love the location though. I visited Pompeii a little less than a year ago and saw many of the actual locations mentioned in the book.
