Re-read from high school. Shakespeare revenge tragedy at it's finest.

This might be my favourite Shakespeare play because of Hamlet's perfect sense of humour and inappropriate jokes. Also, the dialogue is so entertaining. reading a translation does wonders for my understanding of the plot. Also Ophelia. The drama queen of the era. I'd love to drown trying to hang up a crown of weeds on a willow. I'd love to meet hamlet. Yeah he is a manipulative mansplainer, but who cares, he is a good swordsman. When the Shakespeare is Shakespearing vibes<3 Also I found an old, pressed four-leafed clover in the book. so cute
