Journal Entry 4 by EmgeeNL from Rotterdam, Zuid-Holland Netherlands on Tuesday, September 08, 2009

The book arrived.

For me the book laid to much emphasis on Cristianity and all the good stuff it brings. Besides that it was nice to read about the old Rome. It made me remember some of the places I visited there a few years ago.

Journal Entry 7 by shovelmonkey1 at Liverpool, Merseyside United Kingdom on Thursday, August 25, 2011

Received today in the post wrapped in some lovely spotty colourful paper making me feel all excited like my birthday might have arrived early and so it had. Quo Vadis in all its Roman/Christian splendour. I've got Marius the Epicurean to read as well which is also Roman flavoured so am looking forward to both reads. Many thanks to EmgeeNL for kindly sending this on to me.

I shouldn't really give this book a rating as I didn't get very far into it. I'd hoped that it would really grip me but I just wasn't feeling the love for Quo Vadis - maybe cos I've just spent a lot of time in Italy looking at Roman stuff and I got myself all Roman-ed-out! Anyway this book is now travelling on to nicnic2 as part of the 1001 VBB and I will buy myself a copy of this sometime in the future and try and apply myself to the reading of it!

I really struggled to get into this so I have decided to move on to another book and come back to it another time.

isn't it funny how sometimes you can't seem to get into the rhythm of a book??
