I don’t think I’ll ever read a classic and say I loved it. Frankenstein was obnoxiously repetitive and way longer than it had to be. Understandably that’s how long books were back when this was made so I can’t hate it for that. Unfortunately reading it through a modern lens I can’t sympathize for anyone but Frankenstein probably. Man just wanted a lady to live his life with but MC didn’t want him to be happy. Overall MC is a total piece of shit and I’ll never get over how unlikeable characters in classics seem to be. I’m just picky perhaps
