Assigned reading for a Shakespeare class. Will be reading more. 

I think the song "Hot N Cold" by Katy Perry was written for Saturnine. Dude doesn't know what to think and can't make a sound decision to save his life. Titus has way too much honor. If he just became emperor it would've saved a lot of people the trouble. Tamora is wretched. Like sure your empire got taken over, you got captured, and your son was sacrificed, but c'mon man you're just pure evil. Poor Livinia. That's the tweet. Everyone was maddening. Marcus was the only character who had any common sense the entire time. Marcus for emperor. 

This one is definitely entertaining. Very fast paced and full or horrors. These people were ruthless.
