    I studied this in English class and I really like the play. It is excellent. After I read it once I read it about 20 more times after that. It's just so romantic and Romeo and Juliet make such a cute couple. Son't know why everyone thinks Juliet should be with Paris. I totally love the cover of this book as well.
