Romeo and Juliet Book Giveaway
We all know the story of Romeo and Juliet, but there is a new movie coming to town! I’m all for seeing this new version compares to the others I have seen and read. I guess I’m a sucker for the tale of star-crossed lovers.
William Shakespeare’s epic and searing tale of love is revitalized on screen by writer Julian Fellowes (Downton Abbey) and director Carlos Carlei (The Flight of the Innocent). An ageless story from the world’s most renowned author is reimagined for the 21st Century. This adaptation is told in the lush traditional setting it was written, but gives a new generation the chance to fall in love with the enduring legend. With an all-star cast including Hailee Steinfeld, Douglas Booth, Paul Giamatti and Stellan Skarsgard, it affords those unfamiliar with the tale the chance to put faces to the two names they’ve undoubtedly heard innumerable times: Romeo and Juliet. Every generation deserves to discover this lasting love.
To celebrate the October 11th release, I am giving away 5 special edition Romeo and Juliet books. They included the original Shakespeare play and the Julian Fellowes screenplay adaption as well as special photos from the set, and they just may make the perfect gift for someone this holiday season! This giveaway will end at 11:59pm on 10/16. To enter, fill out the form below.

The only version I’ve ever heard/read was the original Shakespeare version that we read back in high school (over 30 years ago). But I’d love to read the new book and even see the new movie coming out.
Julie Simpson says
My favorite version of Romeo and Juliet was the 1968 movie featuring Leonard Whiting Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey.
Danielle V says
My favorite movie version is the Franco Zeffirelli version – beautifully done! I’ve always been partial to the duel scenes, which are the perfect mix of comedic insult-slinging and, ultimately, tragedy.
Thanks!
Best,
Danielle
