I am really beginning to enjoy Romeo and Juliet! In the fifth scene of the book, Juliet meets Romeo, falling in love with him. She soon discovers that he is a Montague, the natural enemies of her family. If she pursues her love towards him she knows that they will both get hurt. I can relate to this because in seventh grade I had a boyfriend that my dad didn't approve of. Even though my dad didn't like him, I spent time with him anyway and it only got me into more and more trouble! Juliet and I both liked someone who we knew we weren't supposed to be with.
I am enjoying reading this book because it's a much lighter read than Great Expectations! I can understand the overall message of each of the scene's but sometime's I need a little help with the comprehension of the individual lines. I am using the notes on the sides of the pages to help along the way. The reading in class is also helping a lot because if I don't get something the first time I read it, reading it again helps me a lot!
