Status Updates From Much a do about nothing

I am reading this because there are only so many times you can watch Kenneth Branagh’s 1993 Much Ado About Nothing in a week and still be considered mentally well (I think I was up to 11). I had to switch the format of my obsession

so the book is technically 166 pages, sure, but the first 73 are counted by roman numeral and not included in those 166! And that first 73 pages include an introduction and cool essays on historical context! I’m not skipping that! that’s half the fun!
