Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
5.0
dark emotional mysterious reflective sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
One of my all-time favorite novels and my first exposure to the frame narrative. Extremely tragic and much more harrowing than I was anticipating when I read this as a high school sophomore. After finishing, my favorite type of villainous character became one who was done unbelievably dirty by the protag. Kudos to 19-year-old Mary Shelley for cranking this one out.
