Oh man, I loved Shakespeare. I get where they say that the classics aren't always relevant, but you know, gotta know your roots. Dickens, Shakespeare, Hawthorne, etc. Some of it can be hard reading and a litte frustrating, but it's important for several reasons. Build your vocabularly, understanding the progression of the English language throughout the years, and sometimes it's a great way to give you an understanding of what was going on in that time period (i.e. Dickens or Shakespeare (sorta) )
