Frankenstein / Dracula / Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde by Bram Stoker, Robert Louis Stevenson, Mary Shelley
4.0
I wrote a separate review for each of the stories featured in this book, and I will only write here what I think of it as a whole:
I really liked Stephen King's introduction, which summarises pretty accurately how I ended up viewing these stories after reading them.
Frankenstein is featured in its 1831 version. As I only ever read this one, I don't know how different it is from the 1818 version, but I liked the added introduction from an older Mary Shelley.
Overall, I think that it was a great idea to put these iconic stories in the same volume. Personally, I didn't enjoy Frankenstein all that much, but fell in love with Dracula and had a lovely time reading Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde.
