I was dreading reading Cicero again, but surprisingly, it's a rather pleasant read: sentences are prettily structured, even. Is this one of his easier works, or did my latin comprehension got better, dunno lol. So also looking forward to read his Philippics later as well.
Imanuel Geiss' book is a profitable read. Very nice and detailed Introduction on the era. This book is mainly a compilation of important related diplomatic documents leading to WWI, so it's worth buying if you are interested(borrowed it from the library but am sorely tempted to buy lol). Each chapters are headed by his detailed intros as well.
