maggiecarr 's review for:
William Shakespeare's Much ADO about Mean Girls
by Ian Doescher
Reading Women Challenge 2019: A Play
I'll be honest I never would have sought out this book to read on my own but it was given to me as an ARC (after the publication date) in my latest shipment. Taken directly from Tina Fey's 2004 film Mean Girls the author rewrote it as a Shakespearean play. I enjoyed the humor hidden within, mathletes speaking with math themed dialog, some nouns not being replaceable still made it into the book like 'Taco Bell' and 'school buses' while other statements more hidden like when referencing Cady's transition from Africa to USA.
"More knowledge of the zebras than of Zen,
More happy near the lions than Detroit,
More calm upon safari than on Chrome...
Farewell said I to Afric and its plains,
And bid hello to high school and its pains."
