Review: Successio (Roma Nova #3) by Alison Morton

As many of you are aware, I have been very impressed with this new series. This is the first and really, the only, alternative history book that I’ve come across in all my literary adventures.

Successio is the third book in the series and I still stand by the ‘read the series in order’ theory. I’ve seen some people say that these books read easily as stand alone novels but I completely disagree.

The world of Roma Nova is complex and the back story is very detailed so I would say if this novel looks at all eye catching to you, then start with the first book and fully immerse yourself in the rich world of Roma Nova and Morton’s stunning characters.

In this third book, we catch up with Carina Mitela, the heir of a leading family in Roma Nova. While things in the empire are more or less at peace, things in Carina’s world are far from that.

Review: The Seven Sisters: A Novel (The Seven Sisters #1) by Lucinda Riley

Lucinda Riley is an author who has long been on my radar to read. Her covers are always stunning and are always set in exotic locations.

When this book came across my desk for review, I had to agree. Who could say no to that eye catching cover and a story set in Rio?

Maia D’Apliese is the eldest of the six sisters and they all have been adopted by a wealthy billionaire.

They grew up in their father’s home on the shores of Lake Geneva. But now that he has passed away, they are all following his dying wish….getting back to their own roots.

Each of them is handed a tantalizing clue as to her true heritage and one clue takes Maia across the world to a crumbling mansion in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Once there, she begins to put together the pieces of her story and its beginnings.
