A light, fun retelling of a Shakespeare classic. Nothing more, nothing less. After reading a few of these Hogarth Shakespeare retellings I've found that the stories don't necessarily translate to novel form that well. This one, of the ones I've read, felt the most like a book the author could've written without taking anything from Shakespeare, in that it felt nearly as much a Tyler novel (the writing, the characters, etc.) as a Shakespeare story. But nothing mind-blowing.
