Romeo and Juliet by William ShakespeareMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I have read this play aloud 2-3 times a year for the last six years straight. To say that its lines randomly float through my brain would be an understatement. Despite repeated readings, it is still not my favorite of Shakespeare's plays. However, when I watch the concluding scenes of "Shakespeare in Love" or watch the Reduced Shakespeare Company act it out, I can't help but fall in love a bit more with this fateful love story. Shakespeare really is a master of words and characterization. We could all stand to have a bit more of him in our days.
