For me, though, the investigation into what it means to be human is much more interesting.Paula@Reading Larkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13734071289437623098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247299972163313175.post-14170040301640027662015-08-30T00:41:30.836-04:002015-08-30T00:41:30.836-04:00You will love it!You will love it!Paula@Reading Larkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13734071289437623098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247299972163313175.post-37289618443600161602015-08-27T19:19:31.423-04:002015-08-27T19:19:31.423-04:00OOoh nice review!

I loved Frankenstein, but part of that might be because I didn't read the original text until college when I was well used to slogging (and at that point, running gleefully) through romantic and Victorian writing styles. I always wished there was a better explanation for the science-fiction elements in the story though...Victor's statement that he wouldn't want to tell people his method for fear of allowing people to make more monsters always felt a little stilted to me. Does This Monsterous Thing treat Frankenstein's monster more in a fantasy or sci-fi light?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00836210384495060367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247299972163313175.post-71765598982852268002015-08-27T19:05:16.097-04:002015-08-27T19:05:16.097-04:00I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS MONSTEROUS THING.
