For me, currently, it is Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors. There is a lot of hate about this book. I don’t know why, the book for me is awesome. First few pages and I’m already hooked. Some chapters got me guessing on the relevance of it in the story but it all made sense at the end. Though it’s a debut novel by Mellors and some writing needs to be improved. Looking forward for her future books.

    Sounds amazing! I love the idea of having a window into that time period.

    It also does sound a lot like Lonesome Dove. You should read that if you haven’t. I thought it was amazing. I’m also eyeballing Shogun.
