review 1: I absolutely fell head over heals for this book. I love the way that Stacey Jay tells a story and the way that her characters ebb and flow throughout. The beginning is a bit of whirlwind where you are picking up pieces of what is going on and as the story progresses you see that is much more at work that the simplicity of the Ambassadors vs the Mercenaries. Juliet's character development is amazing and the way Jay wrote the self-realization is marvelous. Stacey Jay does an amazing job taking the classic play and not only changing it but making the ending so infinitely better.
review 2: I have to be honest, originally I bought this book because it was on the sale table for $4.99 and I liked the cover lol. Then it just sat on my shelf forever but I finally pick
... moreed it up and I really enjoyed it. I love that it was a Romeo and Juliet retelling but with a really cool spin on the original. Although I enjoyed it, something was holding me back so I could only give it a 4 star rating. I think that it was because of how much of a doormat Aerial/ Juliet let herself become. Her best friend treated her like shit and so did Dylan/ Romeo, she needs to balls up big time. I also found it annoying that she wouldn't just admit that she liked Ben, like why lie to yourself, it's only hurting you and him. I know that Romeo is the bad guy but I do kind of feel bad for him. Overall this was a great read and I did pick up the companion Romeo Redeemed to see his side of the story, so we will see. I would recommend this novel to those who enjoy retellings. less

It's been awhile since I read it, but I know I loved it. I read the second book, but not as good.
