I know tragedy can happen any time, but as someone who experienced the suicidal of a close friend/classmate two weeks before high school graduation, I think this book could have done a little bit better job of a slightly less morose conclusion, showing a little bit more specificity of the main character beginning the process of moving forward. I don’t care if it makes me sound shallow, but I am happy that Rosaline (the film based (very) loosely on this book) did not take the same tack as this novel. A little more life and vocal expression in that department could have improved the delivery. The narration was okay, but tended to slip into monotone quite a bit. The Taming of Rebecca Channel Awesome Fandom in: Cinema Snob transcripts, Content, Guides The Taming of Rebecca. I know anyone can ask what I thought would happen since it’s a Romeo and Juliet story, but it strayed from other aspects of the story so I had no reason to think the ending would be so grim. I know it’s a pastiche of Romeo and Juliet, but yikes! SPOILER AHEAD: I foolishly figured that because the title was YA, that the ending might be a little bit of a bummer, but I didn’t think it would go full on mass destruction.
I came to this title after watching the film Rosaline. I know it’s a pastiche of R&J, but yeesh… Based on Rebecca Serles young adult novel When You Were Mine, which was inspired by Shakespeares romantic tragedy, the Disney+ movie sees Kaitlyn Dever.
