  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Just a nice, quick little reread (very much a mood reader).

I love Shakespeare and I love this play, so it was nice to revisit it and read and listen to it again.

"Alas, that love, so gentle in his view,
Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof!" - Benvolio, I.1.

"My only love sprung from my only hate." - Juliet, I.5.

"These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triump die, like fire and powder
Which, as they kiss, consume" - Friar Lawrence, II.6.
