I haven't really had a lot to put on here (as is obvious of the dates in between posts) but, I feel the need to put down some thoughts on a classic novel I finished reading, "Frankenstein". I rated it 2 stars in my book list which means I thought it was not too good. I struggled all the way through the book and read 2 other books in the same period. I would put Frankenstein down and read a seperate book and then pick it back up again. So, after finishing I thought I really didn't enjoy this book but felt almost guilty because it's a "classic". I should like all of those right?
Well I don't know if the movies have tainted my reading but I found the growth of the monster laborous in reading and kind of whiny in the narrative. I wanted to nod off and sleep during most of it. I did like the first part of the book with the great characters in the family and Frankenstein's work at college and thought it would be more thrilling throughout. I was disappointed.
So judge me as a mental midget if you must but, I cannot shake my opinion of this book and needed to share it.
