Romeo's Ex: Rosaline's Story by Lisa Fiedler

2.0

Let me first start by saying I don't like Romeo and Juliet. The language may be beautifully poetic, but the story is just too damn nauseating. I do happen to love retellings of classic stories. So when I saw this on sale for one dollar, I said why not? Oh, I'll tell you why not... Where do I even begin? The writing is amateur, there is a complete lack of character development, and the plot was just... Dull. Not to mention ridiculous. But I do give the author props on doing the near impossible. She made classic literatures most idiotic couple even bigger dumbasses. Oh, and Lisa Fiedler, just a little spoiler for when you actually decide to see/read the play, Romeo does indeed die. For reals.
