We all love to travel, to new places, new cities in cars, buses, caravans, by air, by the sea but I have travelled everyday since I was ten through books. I have let the ocean kiss my feet on the Coast of Ipanema and nosed around in Calgary and my travel expenses have never been more than the price of a McDonald Cheese Burger. Here's my travelogue where books can be found through the countries they have taken me to. The reviews are not professional and definitely not worth putting into a book review assignment for school! They are just a string of words that tell you what I felt when I travelled to a certain place. If it suits you, you go and book yourself a trip. If not, well...we'll keep it there!

Twelfth NightTwelfth Night by William Shakespeare
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Okay, I'm ready to believe that I love Shakespeare a LOT but how couldn't you? Especially after something so wonderful as this? It's lighthearted, it's funny and it keeps you hooked until the end where, once again, that old bard manages to "please you everyday."


I topped up my reading with the Audible narration by Paul Scofield, Siobhan McKenna and John Neville, which enhanced my reading experience even more. For the life of me, I can't believe there were only three narrators because each character had a different voice. The best bit was the Clown's songs, replete with music, the vendor calling out in the Street Scene with Antonio and Sebastian, and just the appropriate background noises and sounds in EVERY SINGLE SCENE!
I totally recommend you read it along with Audible because it just makes the play so much funnier, wittier and the music is really to die for! Perfect read when you want to read something that sounds as high and mighty as Shakespeare but want to keep it light, and have a few laughs along.
