Time to read

What a better thing it is to have this account of a pandemic four hundred years ago, that gives a window into how little humans change and how little we learn and thus repeat the exact same mistakes

Sir Markus Carolinas ,

Not worth reading.

A rambling mess of a book. Unorganized, and waffles on and on. I read this book because 'Robinson Crusoe' is one of my favorite books of all time. This account of the plague is full of interesting facts but one of the most repetitive books I've ever read. Don't bother.

I did not read it but I am scared

The plague killed Belle’s mom!
