3 1/2 Stars. This was not a highly evocative read for me; however, it was not a tedious one either. Something about the plot line kept my mind interested even when my heart felt nothing.

I once again curse school curricula for ruining Shakespeare for a generation of kids. I really quite enjoyed reading this (whilst listening along). Sure I probably missed 80% of the deeper themes or wordplay or whatever but Shakespeare is a classic for a reason.
