It was....different. Yet another one that isn't going to be a favorite!
Maybe if they hadn't KIILED all of them and it wasn't so depressing....Although, I do LOVE Hamlet.
I absolutely LOVE Shakespeare! He was a complete and total genius!
Seriously, the man wrote 38 plays, 154 sonnets, and several LONG poems. He also coined MANY of the words we use today (and expressions). He is definitely by far the most quotable person who has ever lived! (At least I think so.) For instance:
"The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers!"
"Brevity is the soul of wit!"
"Sleep perchance to dream."
NOT one of his best....Very hard to read, actually.
Not one of his best plays, but passable.
A REALLLLY bad play--the only funny part was the "exit pursued by a bear."
I don't normally care for Gaiman, but I LOVED this book!!! It was hilarious yet seriously made you think about some things.
If you're easily offended religiously, DON'T READ IT!
And if you get *ahem* invested in a couple of KEY CHARACTERS, check out the fanfic and fanart. There are some seriously talented people out there!
One of my favorite Shakespeare plays! And, if you've seen The Reduced Shakespeare Company, it's hilarious!
I had to quit 30 pages in--WAY to graphic for my taste!
I LOVE Twelfth Night! It's definitely one of my favorite Shakespeare plays!
Highly predictable if you've seen or read Twelfth Night, or know anything about Shakespeare's comedic devices.
But a fun read nonetheless!
