A review by aliceboule
Song of the Nile by Stephanie Dray

3.0

I love how when you read historical fiction you actually learn a whole lot about history. I never knew that Cleopatra had a daughter and that that daughter grew up to be a well respected Queen.

I have this thing about women who desperately seach power. I always want it, but when I get it... I don't like it so much. I think this is especially prominent in this book because Selene doesn't really want the power for her self: its for every one else .

But still. I greatly enjoed Song of the Nile and kinda wish I could have read more about Selene's rule!!

Spoiler I AM SO HAPPY SHE DIDN'T SLEEP WITH AUGUSTUS IN THE END. I WOULD HAVE BEEN SO ANGRRRYY GRRRR
