I always thought Romeo & Juliet was this really long and hard to read text, but no it's surprisingly easy and quick to read. Also, it was apparent from the first or second act that Juliet's thirteen, so that's a little sketchy. I'll definitely read more Shakespeare in the future, I enjoyed the flowery language. (
