Book Review : Ancient History

Book Review : Ancient History



Title - Ancient History
Author - Sophie Penhaligon
Genre - romance/suspense
Pages - 212
Format - e-book

The story revolves around the protagonist  Athena, a young girl who had done Masters in Archaeology. She lost her parents in a car accident.She visited to Paris to find out the cause of this accident. There she met with Patrice Moreau and after that Jack Latimer.

Firstly she falls in love with Patrice but it's for a very short time. Later she dates Dr. Jack Latimer.

What happens next?
Will she be able to find the truth?

The cover of the book is simple yet eye catchy. The title of the book is totally apt to the content. The plot of the story is interesting, engaging and predictable. It is a perfect blend of history(archaeology),romance and suspense. The author has given the detailed description of the places so amazingly that one can feel like watching a movie.

Language used is simple and easy to understand. Characters are very difficult to relate. It's the mystery which hooked me till the end. The flow of the story is not constant. Some parts like romance are fast paced means they seemed rushed and some part too much dragged.

Overall, an entertaining read.

Rating - 4/5

I recommend this book to those who love reading romance with a little mystery.
