A review by catpingu
Ophelia by Lisa M. Klein

5.0

Must be one of the best books I've ever read!!! It's just basically another take on Shakespeare's "Hamlet". I think this book is very feminist, but it would appeal to anyone and everyone.

This book is so captivating, as it follows Ophelia watching her childhood crush Hamlet grow up. From this book, you can truly feel how much Ophelia loves Hamlet, and how strong and wise women can be when they are forced into desperate situations for the one they love.

I totally love that little twist near the end, when
SpoilerOphelia finds out she really is pregnant, and with Hamlet's child no less!!!! However, I'm conflicted about the final relationship between Horatio and Ophelia...

Oh, Ophelia, you will live on forever in my heart!
