read it out of necessity but i may go back to get some of the good quotes
Read this book for the first time in ninth grade. At the time, I thought it was a very funny book about how stupid other teenagers (who were not as smart as me) were, and I went to the library so I could get more Shakespeare because I really enjoyed his work.
The second time I read this book was this year, preparing to teach it to a ninth grade class. I took away a very different message. This play is a love story, actually- about the love between parents and children, and how blind hatred for others can destroy it. I see why this is one of Shakespeare's most popular plays.
It is also still very funny, though.

Teenagers meet, instantly fall in a love so magnificent it outshines all things, and then have a dramatic suicidal ending when one fails at basic things like checking for a heartbeat, and the other can’t possibly conceive of a life without a guy she’s known for FOUR days!! Four. And she’s 13! Thirteen.
Epic love story not so much.
