We don't know, because Shakespeare left no record of what he liked and what he didn't like. We can talk about what books and plays he used, but it doesn't mean he liked them. He used earlier versions of Hamlet and King Lear, a poetic version of the Romeo and Juliet story, Holinshed's Chronicles, Plutarch's lives, stories from Ovid, stories from Bocaccio and many other books and plays as sources for his own plays.
