A review by shriyani
Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors

3.0

I mean I took a year to complete this book. Does it say it all?☹️
What I’m really struggling is why everyone else liked it so much? It’s not that I didn’t like it but somehow the story breaks the flow so much that I found it pretty hard to continue reading.
I loved the characters; cleo, frank, Elenor, anders I guess each one of them. I liked the way the story flows around cleo, her ups and downs , frank , Elenor and their relationship, those turmoils, but still something was missing.
I guess the author took 7 years to finish writing it and that somehow reflected in the storyline itself . There were chapters where I felt some other writer took the thought from the original one and rewrote it.
Finally I’m happy that I’m able to finish it
