In this intensely romantic, modern recounting of the greatest love story ever told, Romeo’s original intended—Juliet’s cousin Rosaline—tells her side of the tale. What’s in a name, Shakespeare? I’ll tell you: Everything.     Rosaline knows that she and Rob are destined to be together. Rose has been waiting for years for Rob to kiss her—and when he finally does, it’s perfect. But then Juliet moves back to town. Juliet, who used to be Rose’s best friend. Juliet, who now inexplicably hates her. Juliet, who is gorgeous, vindictive, and a little bit crazy...and who has set her sights on Rob. He doesn’t even stand a chance.     Rose is devastated over losing Rob to Juliet. This is not how the story was supposed to go. And when rumors start swirling about Juliet’s instability, her neediness, and her threats of suicide, Rose starts to fear not only for Rob’s heart, but also for his life. Because Shakespeare may have gotten the story wrong, but we all still know how it ends….

4.0 Kiedy byłeś mój
Pisanie na nowo historii Romea i Julii to nie nowość, jednak zawsze z jakiegoś niezrozumiałego powodu powieści i filmy na podstawie dramatu Szekspira przyciągają ludzi jak magnez. Zaliczam się do tej grupy, ponieważ i ja wzięłam do ręki powieść autorstwa Rebecci Serle "Kiedy byłeś mój". Już z prolog...

2.0 When You Were Mine
1.5/5This is just an example of a book that doesn't work for so many reasons. It read NOTHING like Romeo and Juliet the original play (which I have read multiple times before) and the characters were all manic and in need of therapy. Also, casual slut shaming is NOT cool.Rounded up because at least ...

1.0 When You Were Mine
Sometimes a book calls out to you, be it for all the right or wrong reasons. When it comes to re-imaginings of age-old tales and classics of the literary pantheon, one must tread lightly, particularly when entering the realm of William Shakespeare. It’s important to remember the cultural and histori...

3.5 stars.I liked this much more than I thought I would.Initially my interest was piqued by the new take on Romeo and Juliet - a modern adaptation from the point of view of Rosaline, the girl Romeo was desperately in love with until the moment he spotted Juliet. Having recently rewatched Romeo + Jul...
