maevereads 's review for:
Ophelia
by Lisa M. Klein
Ultimately I was disappointed in this book. My expectations weren’t very high, but I was still excited.
Ophelia wasn’t a very interesting or exciting character. I think so much more could have been done with her. Ophelia also suffers from the “special snowflake syndrome”. She’s the only woman who likes to educate herself, and Court life is just so boring and unfulfilling.
Part 3 of this book was so boring I had to skim through it. It was entirely about Ophelia worrying about her identity being revealed and worrying about Claudius. Not to sound too mean but she/the author really overestimates her importance. She could have been written in a way that she was important to the plot and was more involved in everything, but she just seemed like a bystander to me.
After reading this, I am excited for the movie because I think it’s going to be very different from the book. If the movie is just like the book, then that’s going to be one boring movie.
