Aww.
I will keep an eye out though! I don't often look for Shakespeare's work, but I know I've seen them... I'm just not sure it's the titles you've specified, but we'll see.
Haha, oh, I see! In that case:
The Road (Cormac McCarthy) - I might have recommended this one before, but McCarthy's prose is amazing in this book, and not something I'd come across before when I first read it. It's really bare and simple, but the story is still so powerful.
The Girl with All the Gifts (M. R. Carey) - I read this pretty recently and loved it. It wasn't what I was expecting at all (not sure if I should warn you about what the book is about in case you don't like that sort of story, so note me if you like! I personally loved it more for not knowing exactly what it was going to be about).
The Night Circus (Erin Morgenstern) - I'm still not entirely sure whether I like this book that much. It's beautifully descriptive (so highly recommended if you like that sort of thing) but I did find it quite slow, story-wise. But honestly, the descriptions are gorgeous and so evocative.
The Chaos Walking series (Patrick Ness) - The writing style shocked me at first, but, my goodness, I fell in love with his characters. IN LOVE. His books will crush you will all the feels.
Water for Elephants (Sara Gruen) - The story is beautifully told, with fantastic characters. The movie is quite flat and dull, so I'm glad I read the book first because I might have been put off otherwise!
These are the first few books that come to mind, but I'm more than happy to give more if you like!

Ja, das ist schon ärgerlich, aber inzwischen denk ich mir eher "ja mei, dann halt nicht". Ich hab dank der Empfehlung einer Freundin ein ganz lustiges Malprogramm gefunden, mit dem ich grad ein bisschen rumspiel, und das funktioniert soweit ganz gut. *fröhlich vor sich hin experimentiert*
