  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This is my first time reading a "choose your own story" type of book, and even though I enjoyed it I don't think I'd choose to read one again. 
When I read I like to infer on the plot and almost predict and read what happens, so this type of concept kinda didn't do it for me.

The book itself it's good. It's a basic concept but it isn't fool proof (and I am a fool). I felt myself lost in a couple choices, wondering how I could get out of the dead end. (I guess you kinda stop reading at that point, but I'm stubborn and I wanna read the whole thing...)
The story itself was a lighter (and funnier) twist on the classic, but even though there is so many different plot line you can go with, I'm basic so I kinda stuck with the og one. That's on me tho.

Would recommend to a younger audience OR Shakespeare nerds.
