Cleopatra is by Saara El-Arifi. A historical fiction look at the life of the famous Egyptian queen. Told from the point of view of Cleopatra, the novel covers her childhood with her family, her ascension to the throne of Egypt, as well as her love affairs with both Caesar and Antony. The twist at the end was a surprise. I enjoyed this novel.
Ratings: 11th grade - 8 out of 10 - AC (mature thematic content).
