A review by 16nnovs
Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors

3.0

a horrible relationship between 2 unlikeable characters surrounded by more unlikeable characters. i was honestly side-eyeing this book the entire time. there are some parts i found to be beautiful and they will definitely stick with me. with the way the men in this book behave this could be classified as a horror novel. this isnt a horrible book, i just couldn’t resonate with it in full. still gonna read blue sisters tho cant wait for that

“when the darkest part of you meets the darkest part of me, it creates light.” this is my favorite line ever and regardless of my complaints i felt so tender and warm after reading it. in depth review coming soon and perhaps rating change
