A compelling tale of the complexities of the human experience and society’s innate tendency to judge those who are different or who do not fit into the ideal image of ‘perfection’ and ‘beauty’.
I found the novel at times hard to read and follow, simply due to the era of writing, and mostly listened to the audiobook. I think it’s a must read for those who like classics as the morality discussed within appeals to all humans. I think it was overly descriptive in parts, but I find it hard to critique classics from this period, as a lot could be simply missed or go over my head, due to the language and societal differences.
Overall, an everlasting message critiquing society’s role in shaping the lives and attitudes of the human experience.
Frankenstein - ⭐️⭐️⭐️

My favourite book. It is so beautifully written with such strong and impactful messages.
It is absolutely nothing like the modern medias depiction of Frankenstein, rather than a doofy, zombie like monster, this is a creature that was given life against his will, and scorned for living it. It makes you think, a reflection on the judgement and vanity of humanity, a story of loneliness and injustice and a wonderfully written descent into madness.
