This comes a little late, on account of my trip away. I seem to have done rather lamentably for the month of June but I suppose that any progress is good progress.

Ooh, I didn't know there was a graphic novel of Much Ado About Nothing. How was it? I assume it didn't include all of the dialogue from the play...

It was AWESOME! I adored it. I thought the artist did a really good job of using some of the more light-hearted manga illustration tropes to add extra verve to the tale.

It didn't use all the dialogue from the play and one or two lines had been tweaked slightly. All in all, it was pretty faithful. As it should be, since my mum bought the book in Stratford-on-Avon as a souvenir for me (she knows me well).

Oh, very cool! I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
