I love all Shakespeare. Romeo and Juliet is my all time fave though... Maybe it's because of Leo? lol *wants to watch that movie now*

LMAO seriously! I loved reading R&J because I could imagine Leo and everyone saying the lines in the movie, and it all made so much more sense to me that way LOL. We watched the 1960s movie of it after we got done reading it, and all us girls kept telling our teacher we should have been watching the Leo version, but she hadn't seen it. It was good to see the other one though.

I felt the same way about Arthur Miller, go figure. lol The Crucible was only enjoyable for me because we got to make parodies of it in class and my group did Peter Pan as the Salem Witch trials. lmao. I don't have the script anymore, but it was hilarious. lol

That sounds hilarious!
We did something like that in 8th grade, when we read The Hobbit. We got to make up skits of a different part from the story, and my group did something about trolls (my memories of that book are pretty scattered too), and I remember we actually painted our faces green at school and sat around a pretend campfire, and I had brought some of my old Barbies for us to "roast" over the fire and gnaw on LOL. It was hilarious at the time.

No way! I meant to give you a more in depth review cuz I read it last week. Readers are stupid! I'm actually torn because duh you want him with Jordan, but in a lot of ways I can sympathize with Erin and I know VERY well from personal experience what it feels like to be someone's second best, so I feel for her as well. I'm waiting paitently to see where its going actually. It could go either way right now.
That's the problem sometimes with readers. They want to immdiately jump to the first female that is introduced defense because that's who they 'should" wind up with. And anyone else who comes between that is a bitch. I think I'd like to write a fic where the first girl introduced is the bitch. But then my readers would like her because she was with the guy first.

I am not a fan. *big shocker* I hate the ending.
actually I am surprised though that Shakespeare In Love is one of my favorite movies because it's ending sucks too.
but I actually made Josh read Pride and Prejudice to me. It was too hard for me to read on my own and I really really wanted to read it. I LOVE that book!!!! One of my faves of all time! I heart Jane!

Funny story. When we read it in class, our teacher actually let us watch both versions and we compared it to the book. It was amazing. lol
I remember distinctly proclaiming my love for Leo once and Kevin replied with a mumbled "I hate Leonardo DiCaprio." And it was only years later I understood why. ROFL.
