pickI read Clytemnestra last year by Costanza Casati, and I thought there was no way she could top that book - boy, was I wrong! Where do I even start talking about Babylonia? The writing is beautiful and lyrical. The characters are so complex, strong, and real. The story is unbelievable.
Can you imagine being an orphan and rising to such fame? Semiramis was this person. No matter how hard life was, or how much it tried to keep her down, ⬇️
pickI had a headache for a day and half or I would have finished this book in two days instead of 4. My first book for the #JoysofJune Readathon. @Andrew65
The House of Lincoln is a historical fiction based on true facts of Lincoln's life in Springfield, ILL . It also talks about a little known race riot in 1908 in that happened in that town.
It's told from different view points, but the chapters aren't POV. ⬇️

Holy Moly! I couldn't figure out who to believe! Meg, the con artist, who has wanted revenge since her senior year of high school. Kat, a journalist, who has wanted revenge for 10 years. Or, Scott, Kat's boyfriend.
Loved Clark's book, 'The Last Flight', and thought this one was just as good.

Casati's research goes beyond belief. She dug deep when she wrote Clytemnestra, and I think her research went even deeper with Babylonia. There is so much you can learn from reading one of her books. Beware, though, you could go down a rabbit hole. I have to say of the close to 175 books I read this year, thus book has to go down as the best one! I can't recommend it enough. If you somehow missed Clytemnestra, last year, you need to get both books and read them!
