This is a book I have read numerous times and each time I learn something new, picking up something I missed along the way. That is because it is such a detailed and descriptive book, amazing how it came from the mind of a young girl. It explores the need for relationships, the dangers of knowledge and the significance humanity place on appearance amongst numerous others. As the leading science fiction novel, it is a truely remarkable tale. It leaves you questioning your own values and actions. It was a pleasure to study with so many symbols, motifs and different character aspects. It is one of those books you must read in your life, even out of curiousity. I love it and strongly reccomend it, even though some scenes feel like they are never ending, it is very ... MoreThis is a book I have read numerous times and each time I learn something new, picking up something I missed along the way.

Sadly the book was not as described and had bookworm holes littered throughout the pages which immediately went into recycle bin to avoid it contaminating other books.

Magnificent! Ok, yes… I love books! But, do you know what I love more? Classic books in a format that you’ve always wanted to own. And even better still? A surprise! The textured cover was unexpected and I LOVE IT! What a lovely addition to my library…
I absolutely love Frankenstein! It is beautiful blend of gothic and science fiction. This edition would be perfect for any fans. Definitely recommend.
Although the language can be hard at first to adjust to, "Frankenstein" is a must read. This gripping tale that leaves the reader both scared of what might happen, and also invested in the unlikely romance and desire, is great for all.
Frankenstein was one of my prescribed second year university texts. I felt like I had to slog through the first half of the book as it was over-descriptive and felt like it wasn't taking much of a direction. However the second half of the book was much more exciting and I read it within a day. I must admit I had to look up the definition of quite a few words and found that sometimes the language was abit beyond me. Overall I enjoyed the text and enjoyed finally knowing where the famous tale originates from.
I bought this because my teenage son started reading this in his high school class. He was so into the story, that he wanted to have a copy of his own. I read it several years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.
This book is gorgeous, the pictures do not give it justice! it is a hardcover and also comes within a hardcover box too, with lovely detailing. The edge of the pages are silver which looks so pretty when the book is closed - excited to read it :)
leave frankenstein's monster alone. he just wants to read books in his hovel and be loved and accepted. we all have daddy issues just bc he's 8 feet tall doesn't mean u get to vilify him for it. #relatable
