Hello, readers!
As we compiled our lists for today’s episode, we were pleasantly reminded of just how many Shakespeare-inspired novels, retellings, and adaptations exist. We managed to narrow our lists down to five novels. If you’d like three more recommendations, join our community over on Patreon to get access to our bonus episodes!
Check out some of these bonus links for even more Shakespeare-inspired novels:
6 Sapphic Shakespeare Retellings (Book Riot)
10 Shakespeare Retellings Adapted for the Modern Era (Electric Lit)
10 YA Shakespeare Retellings to TBR (Book Riot)
6 Movies That Are Secretly Shakespeare Retellings (Get Literary)
Coming up in October…
We hope you are loving your time with Macbeth by William Shakespeare. We can’t wait to talk about it with you on the podcast and in our Patreon book club next week! Note: Wednesday events will take place on Zoom at 7 pm ET.
Our Fall season isn’t nearly done. In November, we’ll be reading a Great Gatsby retelling: The Chosen and the Beautiful by Nghi Vo. Will you join us? Stay tuned for a full calendar of events.
We declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book!
