Shakespeare Tally at Midpoint in the Year

I set a goal of 12 Shakespeare plays this year. With Troilus and Cressida, I'm up to 8.

It was not a great play - though the Trojan War setting was appealing. This play was almost like an anti-Romeo and Juliet! The leads are unlikable, as are many of the  other characters. And though it's often listed as a Comedy, I disagree. It does not end happily with marriage, just fornication and infidelity and miserable characters. But it's not really a History, or a Tragedy (unless you count the horrible death of Hector at the hands of a really despicable Achilles and the Myrmidons). So I'm not sure what to call it, other than a Shakespeare play! 

I'm now up to 22 of Shakespeare's credited 38 plays.
