This book is incredible! As a Classics student, I’m really put off by historical fiction with glaring  inaccuracies, but I didn’t sense any within this book. It obviously reminded me a lot of walking through Pompeii, but also of reading Ovid’s Amores as well. If you’re a fan of Pompeii, Ovid, Roman Comedy, or women in antiquity, I highly recommend giving this a read. My only critique was that the dialogue didn’t always feel like what a Roman would say, but based on interviews with the author, that seems to have been intentional.
