Read it for lit.
Depressing pre-analysis and depressing post-analysis.

so where do i start? the detailed and vivid writing, the overarching theme of the dangers of having a god complex and thinking you can bend nature to its will, as well as the relatability of frankenstein’s creature and how his experiences and the way he’s treated is a sharp critique to how our society operates……are all what i think ultimately makes this one of the best classics ever. at first i didn’t really get the whole frankenstein hype, and now i do, i can absolutely see why this is loved by so many, including me bc i devoured this like a starving victorian child on thanksgiving day.

It's really interesting how different the book was from the media based off it! Really cool to analyze.
