Booklist Queen's 2022 Reading Challenge - hosted by booklistqueen

Shakespearean Play
William Shakespeare wrote 39 plays (well, maybe. Some of his work is under dispute). Feel free to go beyond the high school standards of Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and Hamlet to explore one of his other works. 

Or reread one of the ones you read ages ago to see if it makes a lot more sense now that you aren't a teenager!
