I love Shakespeare so much but I have to say... I have no idea what happened in this play and
I'm a little disappointed no one died

This is my least favorite Shakespeare have read to date. I listed to an audio version alongside and that's made it readble. Anyway, this was far from my favorite thing i have read for uni :(

Wow. The shortest of Shakespeare's plays and yet that much impactful. Kudos.

I started with The Tempest which I had not read before as I only have read Romeo and Juliet, I loved how it compassed fantasy, tragedy and comedy and how it uses magic to take back the power and life you once lead and also to make you family happy and it way of using power to alter a person’s life years before only to end up were you lead them to end up but now since living of this magical island they now have powers to use against you ends up making it into be a very amusing play.
