The book was in good shape, but it had that awful smell of a book that had been poorly stored. Like the smell of a basement after it's been flooded. I could smell it though the mail pack when I opened my mailbox and after the fairly long wait for the book, I knew I wouldn't be able to get right into it, because i had to leave it out in the air in sun in hopes of getting rid of that smell.

This is every published word Shakespeare wrote, essentially. The genius and forerunner of Modern English, I can't really say anything bad about him. Come on. He's Shakespeare. He's awesome. Now, you may find it difficult to navigate to certain bits you like. I believe the histories come first, then the comedies, then tragedies. Most of the better lines are at the end of the plays, you see. And following those are all the sonnets, which I personally hate, but the rest of the world loves. Shall I compare them to a midsummer's day? There is a lot that can be taken by reading these lines, but much much more that can be taken by saying them aloud. Read them dramatically. Speak them loudly. They are not a novel and you will hate this book's purchase if you regard them as so. Memorize a few lines and make yourself seem sophisticated. Do not read this book from cover to cover. I'm warning you here. Shakespeare was a playwright, not a novelist, so perform the book (even if it is to yourself).Read full review
lovely to read! The pages are beautiful and it feels good to hold it.
