With Elizabeth LaBan visiting us this week to chat about The Tragedy Paper (no, seriously have you read it yet?), I've been thinking a lot about Shakespeare.
I know everyone has a special Shakespeare play they love, but lately there have been a lot of YA retellings floating around! We've spoken about modern retellings, but I want to get specific - have you read any awesome ones about Shakespeare? Since he's the greatest writer there was, it shouldn't be too hard to help me come up with a list, right?
My list of Shakespeare Retellings:
Juliet Immortal & Romeo Redeemed by Stacey Jay
Kissing Shakespeare by Pamela Mingle
When You Were Mine by Rebecca Serle
Ophelia by Lisa Klein
Lady Macbeth's Daughter by Lisa Klein
Enter Three Witches by Caroline B. Cooney
Saving Juliet by Suzanne Selfors
Tempestuous by Kim Askew and Amy Helmes
Juliet by Anne Fortier
Now it's your turn! Hit me up in the comments and leave your recommendations for the best Shakespeare retellings YOU'VE read!
SusieBookworm: Great list! I have Klein's books and need to get around to reading them sometime soon...
jomarch17: The Juliet Immortal books are great! I've been dying to read Kissing Shakespeare.
Book_A_Holic:
Awesome list! I really want to read the Juliet Immortabl books
aprilmom00: I have only read two off this list. I have noticed that I have gotten pickier with my retelling from shakespeare to classics. But going to try one of these.

A_Reader_of_Fictions:
All Men of Genius by Lev AC Rosen was great!
Also, The Fool's Girl by Celia Rees.
For movie retellings, I love 10 Things I Hate About You & She's the Man, though they both definitely take liberties.
Liviania: I am surprised by how many of these I've read. There's also Tempestuous by Kim Askew and Amy Helmes, and Joker by Ranulfo.
