I love this book to bits. I see why it’s a classic, it keeps aging like the finest of wines. And as time progresses, I’m sure this book will still hold up

I really wanted to enjoy this book because it's a classic and so many people have been inspired by it. However, it was a slow read. The word "countenance" was overused (I wouldn't be surprised if it averaged to on every page). Dr. Frankenstein

is definitely the monster in this story, as I'd heard before reading it.
