❝O Romeo Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?❞ ❝I'm right here.❞ ∘∘∘ As her senior year comes to a close, ultra-feminist theater extraordinaire Amelia Delaney Windham wishes to go out with a graceful bow in her final stage production at Waverly Prep. The only problem: this year's play is Romeo and Juliet. Worst of all, she's stuck playing doe-eyed Juliet, with a Romeo whom she passionately despises more than the play itself. (The feeling is rather mutual.) Another possible problem: she may or may not be falling in love with her best friend.
