The funniest Shakespeare I've read, I think–several lines had me cracking up. The reading was easier than say, Hamlet, but really enjoyable and fun with all the rhyming(Bard's got bars). The poetry really added to the atmosphere and magic in the story. I've happened upon some accidental quest to read all of Shakespeare's plays, and this was definitely a worthwhile stop on the way. I love the juxtaposition of all the elements of the play; as usual there's a lot of great insight into humans and their relationships to be found within.
