Do you have a favorite Shakespeare piece?

I saw this cute little Shakespeare home collection piece while at a store called FYE. I wish I had gotten it but I didn’t. I thought it was so cool!

It made me wonder how many people are truly familiar with Shakespeares works. I’ve always loved his work and enjoy trying to decipher the meanings behind lines. Even if it can be a pain in the butt.

I think my favorite piece has to be Romeo & Juliet or Macbeth. Well, in terms of plays.

For poetry, there is too many. I couldn’t possibly pick a favorite.

I’m curious to know if anyone else has favorite works they love by him.

Or maybe you have favorite characters in some plays?

I liked Hamlet a lot specifically for Ophelia but over all I do NOT like Shakespeare and I think he was/is way over 😂

I don’t have any pieces, but my favorite is the Romeo and Juliet play and for some reason I really like it and I wish it would the ending would be different

A collage of book covers including 'Play It As It Lays' and 'Bunny,' with the text 'women vs. the void or: books with unhinged female protagonists' overlaid. The image features various titles recommended for their themes of female struggle and existential turmoil.

Two book covers, 'Brutes' and 'Severance,' are displayed with their genres (literary fiction, science fiction) and page counts. Summaries describe 'Brutes' about girls orbiting a missing preacher's daughter and 'Severance' about a woman photographing an abandoned New York.

Two book covers, 'One's Company' and 'Penance,' are shown with their genres (literary fiction, crime, mystery). Summaries detail 'One's Company' about recreating a TV show and 'Penance' about a journalist investigating a girl's murder.

unhinged & existential book recs

One of my absolute favorite subgenres is unhinged female protagonists (antagonists??). I love books about nearly-feral teens showcasing the trials and absolute mania of girlhood, inner female struggles metaphorically manifesting into the paranormal, or the existential turmoil of being a woman in

An aerial view of Verona, Italy, showcasing a dense urban landscape with numerous buildings featuring terracotta tiled roofs under a clear blue sky.

A narrow, cobbled alleyway with steps descending between an old brick wall and colorful buildings adorned with green foliage, with people walking down.

a shakespearean dream, verona

verona in my opinion deserves a post of its own. maybe it’s my deep seeded nerd love for shakespeare, but I found verona to be more romantic than most. straight out of a renaissance painting, the scenery blends roman ruins with dreamy pinks/oranges/browns. the lush greenery pops out from every balc
