The Theban Plays by Sophocles

4.0

As much as I really enjoyed reading this, I am so glad it's over! I haven't let myself pick up another book because I wasn't done with this for my class yet. Overall, it was interesting reading The Theban Plays. The one that stands out most to me is probably King Oedipus. The plot twist really caught me off guard because I really wasn't paying attention well enough, I think if I had put 2 and 2 together it probably wouldn't have affected me the way it did. But I liked the effect it had on me, it had really drawn me into the story. I suffered through Oedipus at Colonus for some reason. I mean it was interesting and totally had my attention but took much longer for me to read than I expected. Antigone was good as well but still not my favorite out of the three.
