kelmallo 's review for:
2.5 stars.
I think I had really high expectations for this book, and was extremely disappointed to find that it was dry and full of assumptions. It is possible that I am not as educated about Ancient Egypt as I should have been before reading this book, as some of the information that was not about Hatshepsut herself seemed to drag on and on. Towards the end, when discussing the events after Hatshepsut died, I was fascinated. But for the majority of the story, I received too much information about other Egyptian personalities and ways of life that only confused me and left me zoning out.
