Welcome to Litsy!

This book was a fascinating glimpse into the constantly changing politics of Ancient Rome, from a female point of view. Livia was the wife and trusted advisor of the emperor Augustus. Although I didn‘t always agree with some of the choices she made, I couldn‘t help but admire the way she worked through the constraints placed upon her as a wealthy woman, to become a powerful, influential force for the good of the Roman people.

Michelle is such an inspiration!

Hopefull, informative and inspiring.

Not only did she offer a look at the Lady behind Michelle Obama, sharing her hopes, dreams and fears.
But she also encourages and inspire to do more, be more.

Fast paced, action packed, dark and tense; but the ending was a real disappointment.
And still so many unanswered questions...
I guess I need to read the other 2 books to get those answers.

The romantic plot was a bit eye-rolling and obvious, and the supporting characters felt one-dimensional, but I loved the Irish village setting and the magical realism element. This was my #ReadOrDonate pick for March. Definitely donating it.

Another #Afrikaans read for me...
I struggled a bit with the writing style and pacing of this one. At times nothing seems to happen, and the everything happens all at once.
I would however be interested in reading more of Venter's work, as it was so different form the usual Mystery/Romance I'm used to.

What an interesting, engaging story.
I enjoyed the amateur sleuthing and unraveling the mystery.
I do however feel that some relationships were a bit awkward; as in the switch from dislike, distrust and loath to "You're the only one" just didn't quite work.
