Star-crossed Lovers

Last night I finished re-reading Jane Eyre and was wondering what I could read next that would even come close to Charlotte Brontë's level. I didn't have to wonder for long because today I ran across The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet not once but twice. Since it is that time of year, and Shakespeare is on my to-read list for the year, I thought I would give it a go. Is anyone else interested? I'm not planning to do a serious study, I just want to read it for fun, and perhaps post a little something on Friday. I invite you all to grab a box of tissues and read along!
