Romeo and Juliet Act 1

Romeo and Juliet is certainly not what I was expecting from when I first got the book! The image that I had gotten from various tv shows, movies, and book was that is was a classic love story that you just have to read. As of right now, I'm not really seeing how great this story is. However, I don't think that I have room to judge the story because I have not finished it. I am listening Romeo and Juliet online so I can really get a feel for how the characters are supposed to sound like and so I understand the plot the best I can.
