This was a must read for my GCSE. This is not a tale of love but of the inexperienced being obsessed with the idea of love. This book is more of a testament to the time than that of a romance.

I have no idea what I even read, and I didn't even read it in English.

Was confused and then they died.

How the heck is this story so popular?? I am very angry at my teacher for forcing me to read this. Waste of my time, I'm so pissed. >:(

Also, why does Romeo kill, like, 2 characters in the story and why is no one mentioning that?
