About this listen
Not every book we read will skyrocket to the top of our lists. Casey, Jordy, and Nox discuss this and more regarding Cleopatra's story in I Am Cleopatra by Natasha Solomon. Nox DNF'd it, and Jordy and Casey felt it left the reader wanting more, especially regarding Cleopatra's power and influence. All three agree that Solomon's prose is lush and worth reading, though! Light (yet hilarious) spoilers when Jordy reveals gasp Caesar dies.
Books mentioned:
I Am Cleopatra by Natasha Solomon
Cleopatra by Saara El-Afiri
The Royal Diaries: Cleopatra VII by Kristiana Gregory (book on CD linked, but check your library!)
Cleopatra: A Life by Sarah Schiff
