A review by emory
Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

dark emotional reflective slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

seems long and drawn out and is a far shot from what I was expecting due to the distortion of its resonance in popular culture, but eloquent and deserving of its place in not only horror but overall classic literature. very mesmerizing writing
