Okay, I did like this play. It's the first Shakespeare thing I every read, and I was transfixed by the writing. It's beautiful and true, and it's heartbreaking. And ultimately, it's weird...to me. This is what most YA novels nowadays are based off of. The "insta-love" that Romeo and Juliet have is intense. And because it is forbidden, they want it even more.
I recently just watched the movie "Anonymous" based on Shakespeare, and if it was really him who wrote his own plays. The movie makes sense, and gives light to why Romeo and Juliet's story is so amazing and so messed up.

This goes to show you that people think with their hearts and not their heads.
