1By justleavemaloneThis is science fiction, It does not belong in the free nonfiction genreFrankenstein
5By headgsI downloaded the book because I always found the story interesting (one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen is “Young Frankenstein”), but this book was a slow read because it was told in formal English. To me, if it was told in contemporary English, it would have been more enjoyable. I powered through it, though.omggggg
