i adore Shakespeare but do not particularly enjoy romeo and juliet. this book made me enjoy romeo and juliet. this was so much fun: as dark as it needed to be to live up to its premise, as hopeful as it could dare. i had a grand time, especially during the whirlwind of the last 100 pages. im in awe of how grand YA books are at the moment.
