Romeo and Juliet

So. I honestly do not have a book yet..... which is not good. I've been looking but there is nothing that has really caught my interest, so it looks like i'm going to have to write about romeo and Juliet. SO because this whole story (play) revolves around many many characters... I am going to look at some character prompts. So this play and its characters are working through this big main problem that no one between the two families seems to be getting along. They get in so many fights their king had to tell them that if they cause any more chaos, that they would die. So you can probably imagine that one member from each family ( Romeo and Juliet) fall in love with each other. I mean what can be more chaotic than mixing a love relationship with a hate relationship.

I have noticed that so far the characters are dynamic. To start off with, Juliet has completely changed her mind on having a love life. When her mom introduced her to the idea of marriage, she confidently shared that she was not planning or even simply thinking about someone to marry. Then when meeting Romeo at the party, she felt a lot of affection with him, and even kissed him. She is very centered and obedient as well, and she ended up kissing Romeo, which i think was different than her previous character. Secondly Romeo had his mind set on this one women who was a nun, and he had no chance with. That all changed as soon as he laid eyes on Juliet. He had his own love at first sight experience. I love the play though and this is honestly my favorite this I've ever learned in English and its actually fun! I cant wait to watch and reenact more of it.
