Romeo and Juliet - William Shakespeare
I've always heard about this work and was always like hahahahah two fools loved each other and died for each other hahahahh whatever. but reading this was like nah they were fell in love at first sight, but Juliet's parents created that sense of urgency and discouraging environment that forced Juliet to elope and take whatever means to escape marrying Paris. I always thought Romeo was some romantic doofus, but he was pretty smart, and the worldplays were so funnyyyyy! (sorry I judged you bro, but also you did do something stupid at the end ) The writing (once the wall of thee gibberish lifted) was so funny.
I don't really want to spend too much time talking about the characters or the plot, even if you've never read this play it's straightforward to some extent: Montague and Capulets Feud, Romeo Montague is sad about girl he likes so ends up crashing a Capulet party, falls madly in love with Juliet Capulet, they angst about it a bit, they get married in secret, Romeo engages in street violence with Capulets and gets banished, Juliet is arranged to marry someone else, there's miscommunication about a plot to fake some death and it becomes real death. In the meme language too it all happens over a weekend and Juliet is like 13. Very funny.
I'd rather just keep the review short and sweet by saying that it didn't feel like an afternoon wasted - I still rate it a 4 because...it's a classic. It's angsty and insane when you get to the brunt of the matter. A little sad too because between Romeo's foolhardy nature and Juliet's naivety they die together in the Capulet tomb based on misunderstanding. Furthermore I still want to know why the two families were beefing. Shakespeare wake up from thy death and tell thou!
