Look, Shakespeare is meant to be performed, not quietly read.
So, in the realm of all books, this would probably not be four stars, especially if I read the original writing, opposed to the "No Fear Shakespeare" version. As far as "classics" go, it wasn't bad. It was a quick read in honor of 1) the book "Just One Day" that made me crave Shakespeare, a European adventure, and the ability to speak multiple languages.... and 2) it's Shakespeare week! Maybe I will make it a yearly tradition... to read a Shakespeare play every Shakespeare week until I have read them all. Perhaps next year I will read Macbeth.

Big Fan Y'all.
Rosalind is clearly genderqueer and Touchstone is my new Patronus.
