3.0

Another Shakespeare class book- I really enjoyed all the murder and violence in this history. Richard III feels much more engaging to me and his inner ramblings are some of the best bits. I did struggle with the wide cast of characters. Once the two sides were clearly divided it became a bit easier for me. 
I also think my reading and overall feelings were tainted by the fact that I had to rush through over half the book.
'My tongue should to thy ears not name my boys/Till that my nails were anchored in thine eyes,'
