Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare
4.0

2025: It’s been a while since I last read this and as I’m seeing it on stage next week I was due for a reread. I still think this comedy is incredibly funny and even though I prefer Shakespeare’s tragedies over comedies, I enjoyed it a lot. I still think Benedick and Beatrice are a great couple and I love their enemies to lovers plot. The treatment of Hero is still infuriating to me and I still believe she should not have taken him back, but alas (funfact I had to do a portfolio for a class where we read the play and as part of it I did a rewriting of the ending where Hero dumps Claudio’s ass AS HE DESERVES).
