I liked the first part of the book. I love the second part of it too much. The last part was so depressing.

I love William Shakespeare books and reading them as the classic one

Given the pacing and the plot, ‘Romeo and Juliet’ was done well. However, there is not a single likable character. The ones with potential have no screen time, the ones with screen time are anger-inducing. But this is a 2-hour play so not much development is to be expected, the cast is pretty big after all. This is a story criticizing childishness, not romance, but the conflict was resolved too fast. (Spoiler) what do you mean your kid just died and you just reconcile with your enemy? Skipped the rest of the stages of grief lol. Also way too much horny jokes, my poor eyes…

Truly outstanding classic 🗡️

Haven’t read but the sample looks so good

LIGHT WORK WITH NO REACTION

Absolutely hate this. Read it for school freshman year and it made me so mad the entire time. I have a whole list on why I hate it so much. - R and J only met once at a masquerade ball and didn’t even dance for very long and “fell in love” - friar Laurence is an absolute buffoon (though he discouraged the two from getting married at first) he married them - I understand R and J takes place back when a little girl getting married to an adult man was a completely normal thing but Juliet wasn’t even 13 yet and Romeo was anywhere from 19-21 - the nurse did not have to make so many inappropriate jokes to Juliet - why didn’t Juliet just run away with Romeo when he was banished instead of having a potion made to make her seem dead - Romeo should’ve checked to see if Juliet was still breathing or not before killing himself - Juliet should’ve just gone on with her life after finding Romeo dead instead of killing herself, she still had so much life left to live - her dad is probably bipolar

But the blurb is so good

You gotta be real nimble with the pages of art thou to conclude with thy book. 5 stars for thy romance. 3 stars for everything else

One of the classics I love, this makes fun of romance which is something that needed to be done… regardless of if this was made a long time ago…..

Straightforward, with an interesting plot. Easier to read than other works by Shakespeare, so it makes sense that it is often taught in ninth grade.

a classic!

Very poorly written.😐😐😐 I could do better than this😐 Do better shakaaphere 😑

😩😩😩

What an amazing story. That’s all there really is to say. Who thought Shakespeare’s writing could be so bad, I dunno but first time I read was in ninth grade.

It’s good but I did not like how it was lazy for beginners that are reading this I know book I know who is who but if this as my first time reading this I would not know who is half time juliet is name jul , Romeo is name rom

Font size is small. can not expand.

I used some lines to convince my parents to be an actor, hopefully it works!
