5.0 out of 5 stars Used as a companion to Shakespeare
My son was reading Romeo and Juliet for the first time (his first time reading Shakespeare in fact). It was a bit tricky for him. I got him this Cliff Notes so that he could read the synopsis before reading each of the scenes as well as the character studies, etc. This really helped him get a better understanding of the play, and (most importantly), helped him LIKE...

2.0 out of 5 stars Notes for Romeo and Juliet
I would not recommend this for my students. I would purchase a modern day English translation of "Romeo and Juliet" that has the original words on the left side and modern day English on the right side instead of purchasing this. You really can't enjoy Shakespeare this way. Don't cheat yourself from a good education and read only this. Take the time to read the original...

I got him this Cliff Notes so that he could read the synopsis before reading each of the scenes as well as the character studies, etc. This really helped him get a better understanding of the play, and (most importantly), helped him LIKE Shakespeare! He wasn't frustrated at all!

5.0 out of 5 stars R&J made EASAY!, April 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Romeo and Juliet (Cliffs Notes) (Paperback)
This book is exactly what I wanted. Even though I read the full-length play, I wanted something for review and this was perfect! Romeo and Juliet CliffsNotes would also be great for someone who wanted to know the in-depth story without having to comprehend Shakesperean language. I read this book cover to cover in one night AND completed the extremely helpful review questions. I recommend this book, or any CliffsNotes, to any student or any Shakespeare enthusiast.

You really can't enjoy Shakespeare this way. Don't cheat yourself from a good education and read only this. Take the time to read the original play along with a good translation. You will be glad that you did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Think before you buy., November 22, 2011
This review is from: CliffsNotes on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet (Cliffsnotes Literature) (Kindle Edition)
Many libraries have this book, and some can lend them out in kindle format. It's free, but you have to renew every 21 days. Big whoop. Or you could use a Kindle + 3g to look online for the same notes. I don't know how much of a difference they are online and in the book, but that is always an option.

Don't get caught in a bear trap paying for this book.
