I liked this book!! I was one of the very few in my class to actually enjoy reading it. If you're not paying attention it can confuse you because it's a story within a story within a story, but so good!

Although a common misconception is that Frankenstein is the name of the monster. WRONG! Victor Frankenstein is the doctor that makes the creature. The creation is referred to as just that: the creation, creature, demon, etc. He doesn't have a name.

In the words of my friend "Don't read Frankenstein at night when you're home by yourself. It was a little scary, but scary's kinda nice. Gets your heart pumping. Although I'm not one for "terrifying." "Scary" is good. :]

I like this book!
