This was a beautifully written novel and I felt it really stayed true to the time period it took place in. There are wonderfully executed themes of sexism, classism, and betrayal. "Frankenstein" is a highly praised classic, and I really loved seeing a new angle on it, from a new character's perspective!
Moderate: Sexism, Classism, Murder, and Child death
