Summary: ð::*The tragedy of Romeo & Juliet*::ð
Review: This book is one of the most interesting books I've ever read. Why do i say this? Because it has everything like: the romance, the passion, the hate and the death, which is a good way to inspirit the reader. Shakespeare knows how to fit several feelings in the same play.
Romeo & Juliet fall in love at first sight,but they could not stay together for a long time because their families were enemies from centuries ago, who were the Capulets and the Montagues. After few days, the were married secretly by a monk called Friar Lawrence. But WAIT! there was a problem...Juliet was gonig to marry a guy called Paris. As Juliet was also married with Romeo, she could not marry Paris. Because of this, Friar Lawrence offers Juliet to take a poison that will make her sleep very deeply, and by this was she was going to seem death, unfortunately, Romeo did not recieved this message. As a result, he thought tha Juliet was dead, and he commited suicide. When Juliet woke up, she realized that her lover was dead and she also commited suicide. Finally, both families realized that they should stay in peace.
From our point of view, we think that this book was marvellous, but it should not ended up in this way.

Summary: Far from satisfying
Review: This radio adaptation is interesting in some ways, but it remains rather short on its objective. The sound universe created behind the voices is rather diminutive. Some voices are not that very accurate : Juliet is rather old-sounding and Romeo is quite late in his twenties at least. Lord Capulet speaks as if he were plain drunk all the time. But what's more some interpretations are defective. The famous sonnet during the dance is just badly done. The tone is wrong. The wit is flattened, etc. The balcony scene is slightly better, luckily. Romeo, by the way, is too much of a hooligan, of an agressive character, not at all in keeping with the world we can vaguely hear behind. Finally there are some cuts and some changes in the text that are not at all justified, such as « pacing » for « passing ». Dr Jacques COULARDEAU, Paris Universities II and IX.

Summary: My "Romeo and Juliet" personal opinion
Review: We like and sometimes didn't like this book. "Romeo and Juliet" is based in an "impossible " love. We recommend you not reading this book if you don't like romantic stories.
Also this book didn't like us because it was boring and very difficult to read. I understand that was Shakespeare language but for these new generations is very difficult. In the other way, we like it because the characters did everything for completing their dreams. We could see that Romeo did every thing for being with Juliet.
Thank you for giving us this place for expressing our ideas.

Summary: Romeo and Juliet
Review: We think this is a very good book. It has a lot of elements that different people would like. It shows how the hate of some persons, can hurt others, and, in this case, kill each other.
It helps people to accept the reality, and to see things how they really are.
Although the book is very interesting, it may confuse younger lectors. Very young children may not understand it easily. And the vocabulary is, sometimes, very difficult to understand.
There are quite a lot of details that may bore some readers, and a lot of characters, which may be confusing.
So, in conclusion we recommend that just older people should read it.
