I first tried to read Frankenstein when i was 14, and i didnt like it. The pace was too slow for my taste, and i ended up dnfing it. Now, that i am 20, i decided to pick it back up again, this time in audiobook form, and i loved it!
I love how complex and morally grey both Frankenstein and The Creature are, i love the whole moral dilemma of progress and science and prejudices, I loved the parts that were narrated by the creature the most.
I isnt a 5 star bc the descriptions were too long for my taste, and that fact that Frankenstein was just narrating this to his friend, word for word, destroyed my suspension of disbelief, nobody is that bad at summarizing.
