The Emperor's Babe by Bernardine Evaristo

5.0

That was excellent. It's so original. I was nervous about reading a novel written entirely in prose but it just draws you in. The mixing of Latin with modern colloquialisms was so clever and indeed very entertaining. Also the fact that Zuleika probably didn't make it to her nineteenth birthday just killed me. Vivat Zuleika, empress of my heart.
