Storyline was slow. Read a third of the book and still didn’t know anything about the uncle or the mysterious letters. Or know who the love interest was.

it started out so good and interesting. the victorian spooky vibes were all there. but then it just keep dragging on with not much happening and it took them so long to finally start working on the creature.

Much fun! I love the idea of Victor Frankenstein's great-niece, reading his account, learning about his horrible mistakes and thinks "well I'll never do anything as stupid as making a THINKING creature....I'll make a dinosaur :)"

It's so Victorian Jurassic park, a lot of fun, with sweet moments of women reaching towards greatness. And then devastating consequences because...well it's Frankenstein x Jurassic Park what do you expect.

Though this took me a bit longer to get through as I normally read more fast paced thrillers but I still loved this story so much. I loved the writing, I loved the narrator, I loved the subject. I’m not sure why but this book just hit me with a passion and I would read more and more of it if I could.

Frankenstein meets Jurassic Park, but make it boring and mostly hollow.
