What reading level is Song of the Nile book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She put her hands on my belly and sniffed at my breath and asked me about my last moon’s blood. I could tell her nothing with certainty. My last menses came before my wedding. Before the emperor violated me. Before I’d found my lover in the sirocco. Months ago, I told her. Maybe two. No more than three. I couldn’t remember!
She departed, saying it was too early to tell. But I knew. I knew! And it was a calamity. I wanted to believe that what quickened inside me was a gift from Helios . . . t...hat, like Isis revived Osiris, I’d brought Helios back from death in the guise of a babe. But it might well have been the emperor who fathered a child upon me and I shuddered at the very idea that something grew inside, unwanted, a threat to my life. How I regretted taunting Juba about the possibility of carrying the emperor’s child. Had I tempted cruel fate by speaking the words aloud? Remembering Tala’s ordeal, I wished it away a thousand times! Even if I survived the birth of this child, it would be a living reminder of all that the emperor had done to me and mine.
