Overview

Reviews

(D)ebut novelist Jansen crafts a relatable heroine whose anxious first-person narration carries the debut, while the diverse supporting cast rounds it out. Readers will root for Alison as she learns to collaborate, manage others' expectations, accept failure, and, ultimately, to love. In the words of the Bard himself, most wonderful.-- Kirkus Reviews


Though the story about the production of a play makes it an obvious choice for theatre kids, other teens will also appreciate The Year Shakespeare Ruined My Life for its humour, broad representation of diversity, and affirming life lessons. -- CM: Canadian Review of Materials


Author Information

Dani Jansen is a teacher and writer who lives in Montreal. She should probably be embarrassed to admit that she has performed as part of her school's Glee Club for eight years. She should probably also be ashamed to tell people that she named her cats after punctuation symbols (Ampersand and Em-Dash, in case you're curious).
