Romeo and Juliet--A Parody
Summary:
Juliet Capulet is just your average teenage girl until a chance meeting at a community dance changes her life forever. She meets Romeo Montague, who immediately starts stalking her, claiming they are meant to be together. For Juliet, this is just too much; she calls the police. How did such a story inspire the great William Shakespeare? It's not how you think!

You weren't kidding when you put humor as one of the tags for this book!
I really liked this book! It was well-written and hilarious!
I wrote two stories; they're in the thriller/mystery section. I'd really like you to read them and give me some feedback.
Keep up the good writing!
Very well written.
And incredibly funny. That's all I pretty much have to say--this left me laughing so hard and wanting to read more! I'm impressed at your ability to write humour--I can't pull it off myself and I don't know a lot of people who can.
I don't see any major problems with the dialogue--I did find it a little bit sloppy at some points, but nothing that honestly ruined the story or made the characters seem unrealistic.
A few things though--actually, only two:
* Your use of semi-colons. There are some places where you could use dashes instead--this isn't actually an error. It's more like an opinion. Dashes pretty much do what semi-colons do (I think XD). But if you want to use semi-colons, go right ahead ^^.
*Breaking up of paragraphs. There are people like me who have terrible eyesight. Big chunks of text are hard on my poor eyes. And with TI's font size and layout...well, again, it isn't something major or glaring. Just a little something I wanted to point out.
Aside from that, excellent work :).
