The Dark Descent of Elizabeth Frankenstein by Kiersten White

5.0

---

In the vein of Wide Sargasso Sea, this is a retelling of Shelley's Frankenstein from the point of view of Elizabeth, the fiancee of Victor Frankenstein. I loved this story, and the thought behind it of making traditionally stock female characters into dynamic ones, who are sometimes lovable, sometimes hate-able, but also have the ability and opportunity to grow.
