Had to read this for class but I actually enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. The ending especially was pretty interesting.

By far my favorite Shakespeare play. What else can I say? The Ghost. The drama. The Ploy. So many good quotes — overall it’s a fantastic play that everyone should read.

One of my favorite Shakespeare tragedies! I love the themes of political instability and one’s own mortality mixed with elements of the supernatural.

An absolutely stunning play, and definitely my favourite Shakespeare that I've read so far. Shakespeare delves into the inner workings of consciousness to a whole new level here, deeply considering the effects of grief and confusion in both male and female characters. Hamlet is a complex, interesting tragic hero; Ophelia is perfectly heartbreaking, Claudius is appropriately slimy... in terms of personality, it is rare to see a play with such diversity as this one. A masterpiece.
