Summary from Goodreads:
Shakespeare’s work features some of the most memorable stories and
characters ever created, yet for too many curious readers the combination of
ultra-dense dialogue and unfamiliar historical settings make tackling the
Bard’s work something between a tedious chore and a confusing mess of
bird-bolts and quondam carpet-mongers.
While it’s nearly impossible to replicate or improve on these works, it
is (thanks to their timeless nature) possible to make them more accessible to a
wider audience.
In this Young Adult retelling of one of William Shakespeare’s most
memorable plays, join C.E. Wilson as she breathes new life into Othello, the
second book in her series Shakespeare for Everyone Else.

Praise for the first book Much Ado About Nothing in new YA series,
Shakespeare for Everyone Else:
“If you’re a fan of Shakespeare, I
say, give this a go. And even if you have attempted Shakespeare, but haven’t
been able to get past the language, pick up this edition and enjoy.” ~The
Turning Pages~
“I definitely recommend this to
all the Shakespeare lovers, especially if you're a young adult yourself, or
really enjoy reading YA books.” ~Angelic
Reviews~
“The writing is beautiful, as C.E.
Wilson was able to keep the poetic tone of the story. My love for YA stories
has been restored!” ~NWA Gossip Girl~
Excerpt: “Stop!” Roderick said. “I don’t want to hear about it. If you’re so miserable being his treasurer then quit. Who cares, you know? You’ve already been rejected—”
Excerpt: “Stop!” Roderick said. “I don’t want to hear about it. If you’re so miserable being his treasurer then quit. Who cares, you know? You’ve already been rejected—”
“So then I’ll
have a rep as a quitter? Give me a
break, I’ll stick it out. I wasn’t
raised to give up when things get shitty.
Besides, with me serving under him, I’m pretty sure I’m at an
advantage. Orion trusts me – he doesn’t
know how my mind works. He thinks I’m
perfectly okay being passed over for Micah but he has no idea I’m against
him. At the end of the day, I will serve
my post well,” he said sarcastically while giving a mock salute. “I care about the school and I care about my
reputation, but let me tell you this, Roderick.
I’m not the friendly nice guy everyone thinks I am.”
Roderick lifted
up his head, looking at his friend curiously.
“If Orion really believes you’re working for him then he’s stupider than
he looks. But what are we going to do
about him dating Devony? How am I
supposed to land her for myself if she’s actually with him?”
“I have an
idea.”
