Honestly, because of it's verbose prose, it does get rather tiring to read and digest fully, unless one has lots of time to do so meticulously. However that is half the fun, and the ladder the (melo)dramatic storyline - yet of which does not appeal to me. When it was renown back then, it was entertainment. But as time has advanced and also with my personal, niche taste, it doesn't draw quite as much of an appeal.

Not the most impressed 😅
The audiobook helps a lot but of course it's melodramatic
Somehow I'm speed reading but also wishing to sleep

Now I do think that Romeo and Juliet is not Shakespeare's best play, but renowned and "well written" in its own way for its deep impression due to dramatic exposition that sheds perspective on love, hatred, youth, and impulsive decisions.

Despite all else this isn't much fun! Sorry Shakespeare. I still respect you for your prose... Just not my cup of tea

"He jests at scars that never felt a wound."

Humorous but also incisive :)

"But passion lends them power, time means, to meet,
Tempering extremities with extreme sweet."

Catchy lines
Melodrama
Which leaves a bold impression in our minds
Maybe it's simple as that :)

A remark alas comes to mind;
"Ew."

Basically what I'm seeing is a shallow plot veiled by (very) dramatic declamations XD

"Tut, I have lost myself. I am not here.
This is not Romeo. He’s some other where. "

This is just kinda cool and funny at the same time-

"Alas, that love, so gentle in his view,
Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof!"
