A Daughter of Fair Verona, by Christina Todd

A review of “A Daughter of Fair Verona” by Christina Todd, a reimagining of Romeo & Juliet where R&J survive the play and have a family together. Their daughter Rosaline gets involved in a murder mystery, as well as romantic entanglements around Verona.

The Family Medici, by Mary Hollingsworth

A review of a history of the Medici Family, presented in audiobook. It’s an interesting piece of more modern European history that tends to get glossed over while discussing things like the Renaissance, and so this is a fascinating look at the politics behind a lot of the art and architecture of that period.
