5.0

A must-read for any Frankenstein lover. This book plays on all the themes that make Frankenstein so perfect, but zooms out to focus on just how destructive Victor Frankenstein was to the people around him and those who were unlucky enough to cross his path. It’s creepy, devastating, complex, and somehow hopeful and full of life. This book is my new obsession!
