It's not a book, but an anime - Thermae Romae on netflix (has a dub) and it's about.. stay with me.. a time travelling roman who travels to future bath houses and studies their architecture and design, and incorporates those lessons into his own public bath designs in ancient Rome.

I really love when artist are allowed to just geek out on certain subjects. I'll definitely have to check Pompeii out!

I love the book to hell. And I cannot recommend the audiobook enough either, read by Maggie Gyllenhaal. I think she voiced a perfectly numb "Esther" (Plath) while also still managing to fit in with the other school gals.

Really enjoy the book. Read it a couple years before I was diagnosed with depression though lol.
