The only thing I know about Frankenstein is that Frankenstein is the doctor and not the monster, but also that Frankenstein is the monster. So I'm going into this one with maybe 2% of knowledge and the other 98% is just vibes and every single media that was inspired by this book.

I hope I have as good a time as I did with Dracula 🤞🏾🤞🏾

I think this one needs to go in the “little life” category. It is so unbelievably heartbreaking to me as someone who feels deeply about their childhood friendships. It’s almost too sad right now so I think im pausing until I feel emotionally ready

The story is great. I love the way things are described, the writing style isn’t too childish and it isn’t full of ridiculous words to the point of illegibility. Great, great, great. HOWEVER. Whoever did the editing must’ve been entirely unaffected by the idea of using the same word multiple times in a paragraph, seeing how often it happens. Sadly, that’s one of my pet peeves. I think it makes the writing sound amateur. Saying “barn” three times in two sentences is a little much. “Water” three in three. This is very very far from an amateur novel! The author is well-liked and the book itself is well-known. The writing is generally very great! I am not a published author, nor am I an editor, so I can’t really say much on the subject. It’s just that one itty bitty little thing that bothers me a lot more than it should…
