Any suggestions to add to my (small but growing) Roman library?

Post Body

Just finished Pax, and it was great! Already have Mary Beard’s new book pre ordered (can’t wait). Looking for any other suggestions. My main interests are mid-late republic and early empire but I’m open to anything!

I have been collecting Roman coinage for a decade but only in the past few years have started to delve into the people behind those coins!

Cassius Dio is a good choice it’s a heavy read though. If you’re interested in poetic works I recommend the Aeneid and Metamorphoses. If you like the politics of the republic read Cicero’s “the Republic” and his “Philippics”.
