REGINA: Yet thou dost possess a beauty rare,
Young budding virgin, fair and fresh and sweet,
Happy the parents of so fair a child;
Happier the man, whom favorable stars
Allot thee for his lovely bed-fellow!

CADY: Again, my thanks.

REGINA: --Thou dost agree withal?

CADY: What?

REGINA: --Thou think’st also thou art beautiful.


I know the overlap in the Venn diagram of Shakespeare lovers and Mean Girl fans is a small one. But it exists. And I am in it.

This book is seriously one of my favorite things this year. It has made me laugh so much. I would love to see it performed as an actual play. 5/5 stars

Awesome! Amazing links to Shakespearean females and the language is exact while the characters voices are so close to the movie version it’s eerie. If there is a way to get kids who already love Shakespeare to bite or a way to show students that Shakespeare’s language can transcend modern day-it’s this!

This was such a fun and quick read. I know Doescher wrote William Shakespeare’s Star Wars as well so I might pick that up whenever soon. I’ve watched Mean Girls about a hundred million times so I knew nearly about the entire movie. 

It’s been a while since I’ve read a Shakespeare play so it took me a while to get used to the writing; but not so long that it made me like the play less.
