This book was absolutely stunning. It tore my heart completely in two and was completely brilliant in how it made you feel both for Frankenstein and the monster he created. The writing was so stunning I couldn’t keep myself from underlining all of the time. The only thing I could see people disliking is the way the story builds and the lack of any particular gruesome moments that some may come to associate with this story because of the ideas around it. I would say if you want something genuinely scary this is not it, but if you want something that will disturb you purely because of how nuanced it is, this is the one.
