I started reading Hamlet again recently , so voted for that. :)
If it comes down to it, I'd gladly read either as well (it was I that voted for Troilus and Cressida, by the way). :)Quote:

I voted as well "Troilus and Cressida"... I lately finished it and needs some( especially in the middle part -I was lost) enlightenment. I'll hold my copy for a while and start reading it again perhaps.:)

I've gone for Henry IV Part One since it follows Richard II, and i've just bought the book :D
I'm new to Shakespeare, so I'm eager to read anything! I voted for King Lear; that's the one I'm looking forward to reading, but I'll happily go with the flow.
Where's Richard 11, or do I just need new glasses :)?
wessexgirl, I have been asking the same question and could not locate the thread but now I finally found it. The thread is called Sticky: Richard IIQuote:

Having never read Antony and Cleopatra, I'd love to do it for the bookclub, but I don't know if I'll have time to post then. Spring is a long way off. I'll just keep my fingers crossed that it stays in the running.
I'll read whiever play wins the poll. However if it has to be a historical play then I'd rather read Henry IV (part 1) which is why I've voted for it.
I got the Historical plays for Christmas and just finished King John and will keep on going chronologically because I imagine that it's easier to follow....
Well, has anyone started Richard II? I will probably do so next weekend.
Going once...
I finally voted. :D
Hmm, three votes for Henry IV pt 1 - do I see a sort of theme developing here? OK I'll go along with that.
Going twice...
Henry IV is a nice progression and I already read it.
Oh good. Looks like I get to read Henry IV Part I. I have read that one in ages.
Yay ok, I love the 'Henry' plays! We get introduced to young Hal and his band of ruffians in this one, right? Good idea, since it does follow the "Richard II" play; that is the order I read them in to begin with, about 3 yrs ago. The history makes more sense that way. Hopefully, we can work up to "Henry V" eventually, since that is my favorite.
