Book to Read this Spring: Cleopatra a biography By: Stacey Schiff

Where to buy this book: Rakuten

I have always loved reading books as a child, as my grandmother and parents always bought me and my siblings books instead of lots of toys as most children get. Reading is such an excellent escape from the harsh realities of the world and sometimes it can take us to places we may never get to travel too in our lives.  One of the best books, I have read this past year, and I read a lot of books, is this biography about the story and life of Cleopatra. I have always been a huge fan and lover of Egypt and about learning about their Pharaohs and history, and this book really gives me an inside look into the most powerful Female Pharaoh to have ruled Egypt.

What I really loved about this book was that you actually learned some personal things about the life of Cleopatra and how she came to be the most powerful women Pharaoh in Egypt. Cleopatra was an extraordinary women and had to fight her whole life to remain Pharaoh of Egypt. It is an amazingly well-crafted novel, and I highly recommend people to go out and read it.
