I think it is a beautiful story it has romance , action good drawings and places.
This is probably the best book I have ever read, this story is about a boy names Romeo who falls in love with Juliet, basically they see each other and fall in love and after talking to each other for 5 minutes they want to get married. It sounds weird but the time this was written things like this were acceptable. But there's one problem their families hate each other and have been doing so for years. They have no one to go too except for Friar Lawrence who secretly gets them married, but right after that happens Romeo kills Juliets cousin, now Juliets family has another reason to hate Romeos family. Things get even worse as Romeo gets banished from where they live, Verona, so read this book to find out of these two lovers will ever see each other again or not.

Okay, so this book is awesome! I just picked it up and started reading, and I fell in love! So, just a couple of things before my summary, I find it really disturbing that Juliet is only twelve! I know it's the time period and everything, but still! And Romeo is between 17 and 23, so, that's really... fun. Anyway... Romeo has this crush on Juliet, after, you know, talking to her for like, 2 minutes, so he goes to her house that night and calls up to her window, and turns out she likes him too! Except, Juliet is betrothed to the County Paris, and then there's this whole thing where Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, kills Romeo's buddy, so Romeo kills him. So then Juliet's family hates Romeo, and the Prince banishes Romeo. Now he can't be in Verona, so he can't be with Juliet. They concoct this elaborate plan, but then, as an end result, Romeo gets poisoned and Juliet ends up stabbing herself, so, kinda sad and morbid, but an awesome book!

So Romantic
For my English class, we have been reading Romeo and Juliet for the past month now. This play requires tons and tons of patience. It is very hard to follow, do to it being written in Shakspeare. However, at the core of this story, I feel it is a very intriguing tale that has potential. But so many times I find this story to lag on and on, and find it a little bit boring. I feel that it uses uneven story telling, and it's hard to follow what is actually happening. One thing I will say about this old as time tale is that it has excellent character development. Today, too many stories have way too many characters and they can't balance them all out. While there are instances I don't find myself invested in the story, not once do I question the characters actions. I always understand the characters point of view, and why they do the things they do. I get why Romeo kills Tybalt, and why Juliet doesn't want to marry Paris. That is perfectly clear throughout the story. I know that this play was published in like the 1500's, and that it's important to know about. However, for it's time, I feel that this was probably very advanced. So in the long run, Romeo and Juliet is something you are probably going to have to read some time. I'm not saying that I didn't enjoy it, but just too many times I find myself drifting off. It's up to you if you like it or not, however I think that it was a semi interesting story that could have been a bit improved on.
