Angelika Frankenstein Makes Her Match
This pains me to say but this was a miss for me. I wanted to love it since I loved The Hating Game but couldn’t. I preordered this and was very excited to have it as a Spooktober read.
It was very repetitive; a lot of desperate begging from Angelika, cringeworthy declarations of love with no build up. The relationship felt extremely rushed so I wasn’t invested in it.
Only part I liked was an author, niece of the longtime servant named Mary, coming to visit and it being implied she would write the original Frankenstein. I love fun spin-offs.
I won’t presume to think my reading choices are the same as everyone so if you’ve been wanting to read it still do and we can discuss!
