Reading a novel about Cleopatra's daughter sounds to me like heaven. :)Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11698452908549878264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319886081447332049.post-12340311100392613942009-10-01T13:45:53.426-07:002009-10-01T13:45:53.426-07:00I love Egyptian anything and I did not know she ha...I love Egyptian anything and I did not know she had children either. I am right there with you Rosemary. I knew she had a son with Caesar but not with Anthony. <br /><br />I loved that it is a twisting and turning story where you never knew what was going to happen next. Thank you Allie it was the most fiting way to explain such an interesting character. <br /><br />Marie, OMG I started it last night and it is really good so far. I was kind of unsure about it but that feeling is gone now that I am on pg 56. It is not my typical style but it is really working for me. I think because slavery was such an issue in Cleopatra's Daughter going to another novel set in a slave plantation time frame makes it even better.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06610444517085989215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319886081447332049.post-60800857605560867662009-10-01T08:43:00.638-07:002009-10-01T08:43:00.638-07:00Glad you enjoyed this one too, Michelle wrote so f...Glad you enjoyed this one too, Michelle wrote so fluidly I was entranced the whole way through.<br />I see you are reading Receive Me Falling, & I was hoping to get to that one soon but alas! too many other obligations right now.
