A review by alfyasmeen
The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio

4.0

I've read this book when I was 15, I remember really loving it. It was a very engaging collection of 100 atmospheric novellas. In the beginning the author states that a few young women and men fled from Florence because there was some sort of plague there, so they're staying in an isolated villa for 10 nights. Then, to pass the time, each one would tell a story/tale every night. Some were okay, others were great. Overall, it's a recommended read for people who like classics.
