Find this review and more on: http://www.nobentspines.blogspot.comHeartbroken. That's what Rosie feels when Rob chooses her cousin Juliet over her. The day after they went on a date! The nerve.... Yes, the story line stays true to the original Romeo and Juliet storyline. And I am so freaking happy ...
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 ...
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.

We all know the story of 'Romeo and Juliet' – it’s the story we all think of when someone mentions “Star-Crossed Lovers.” What gets forgotten is that Romeo was in love with someone before meeting Juliet.

The drama is completely overblown, the characters are all one-dimensional, the narrator constantly talks about "when you live in California...(add stereotype)" as if the huge state of California is only the greater LA area. And the message ...
I love anything that has to do with Romeo and Juliet, especially the idea of R&J from another point of view. Add that it's Roseline's POV and I'm hooked.I liked that it was set in modern times and the overall plot was enjoyable. But I hated that Rosaline became Rosie, Romeo became Rob, Capulet becam...
Wow I loved this book! I’m a huge, huge, huge Leonardo DiCaprio fan and I have seen the version of Romeo and Juliet he is in no less then 100 times. Every time I see it I take notice of the mention of Rosaline, but have never really though much about her. That is until this fantastic book came abou...
OVERALL IMPRESSION: Absolutely amazing! I could not get enough of this book. The first half of the story was super sweet. I love the way Rose and Rob are together. I went through so many emotions while reading this book -- happiness, anger, devestation. It felt like I was actually in the story. I wa...
