As a dinosaur lover, this book was incredible!! It's a beautiful ode to the premise of Frankenstein, with the spin of an unexpected setting.

I felt anger along with Mary and fell in love with the creature. I was fascinated by the development and annoyed by her waste of space husband.

My only gripe is how much this book is marketed as sapphic when that's barely even there. The fact that it's such a strong story advocating for women in academia should be front and center, because it executes it beautifully.
