kailey_luminouslibro 's review for:
The Two Gentlemen of Verona
by William Shakespeare
Here's my favorite quote:
"Cease to lament what thou canst not help,
And study help for that which thou lament'st.
Time is the nurse and breeder of all good."
-TGofV
Well, it's a good play, and funny in parts. I dislike the banter between the servantmen; Serves no purpose in furthering the story. There are some very pretty lines and good scenes. Valentine and Silvia are excellent, admirable characters. All in all, though, not my favorite play.
Warning: SPOILERS AHEAD

I hate Proteus! What a jerk! And I do NOT like how he's just forgiven by everybody in the end. If I were Julia, I'd shove that ring down his throat and hope he chokes on it.
I'm unsure why Valentine lies to the Outlaws telling him that he is banished for killing a man. Is he trying to seem tough so they won't hurt him?
And yet AGAIN, we have a woman dressing up like a man and becoming the page/servant to the man she loves. Get some new material, William.
