I'm really glad to have finally read this classic. It wasn't as spooky as I expected. I thought the creation scene would be more dramatic at least but a lot of the story is anticlimactic and Frankenstein doing nothing productive, only complaining how hard his life has become

This was a reread for me, and while I always love reading along with the #HashtagBrigade , ol' Victor got on my nerves even more this time around. He's just so useless! If he spent half the time actually doing something productive as he does sitting around and bemoaning his fate, the creature wouldn't have had the opportunities for destruction that he had. In the end, I think both Frankenstein and the creature are both monsters. This book ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) definitely deserves its status as a classic and is completely worth the read, but I get too aggravated with literally everyone to really love it. Soft pick.

Frankenstein | Mary Shelly

Took my daughter to the movies on Halloween to see Frankenstein, by Guillermo Del Toro. It veers from the book but it was a beautiful adaptation, Elizabeth has far more of a role and the Creature‘s initial innocence is so well done. Daughter wept - I nearly did - really moving. Also a bit gory in places. I saw a great meme titling the movie “Frankenstein - or how to DIY Jacob Elordi in your basement” 😂

GingerAntics 🤣😂🤣 6d

vivastory Lolol I'm glad you & your daughter enjoyed it. It's definitely in my top 5 of the year. 6d

Centique @vivastory yes me too! And my daughter (the real film aficionado in our house) says its one of her top ten ever 🙌 She was rushing home to write about it on Letterboxd. Do you use that? 6d

vivastory @Centique I log my movies, but I don't write reviews on them (with the one time exception of Brandon Cronenberg's Possessor, when I wrote something along the lines of: I don't think I've ever muttered WTF so frequently in the final 5 minutes of a movie. Lolol). I actually love that movie, but to say it's shocking is putting it mildly lolol 6d

Reggie Sounds like a great Halloween. 5d

Centique @Reggie believe me we were sitting having a wine beforehand saying “this will impress Reggie” 😍♥️😍 5d

In honor of Halloween and the finishing of this brilliant novel by the #hashtagbrigade. This one never gets old. 🖤💚🖤

AnnCrystal Wow, incredible capturing. Powerful 👏🏼🐝🥺🐝💝.

I was reading Guillermo del Toro's comments about his new take on Frankenstein.

Never read the book, nor have I watched any of the movies...I tried when I was a kid, but I just couldn't because it was just too sad.

Yet, I found Guillermo's remarks on the storyline very interesting.

🥲🎬💝. 1w

AnnCrystal Qoute “I did want it to have the arrogance of Victor [Frankenstein] be similar in some ways to the tech bros. He's kind of blind, creating something without considering the consequences.“ - Guillermo del Toro

Guillermo del Toro later clarified that the film is not a metaphor for AI, stating, “I'm not afraid of artificial intelligence. I'm afraid of natural stupidity.“

Frankenstein was enjoyable enough. As usual it wasn‘t at all what I thought it would be, but that‘s not a bad thing. My favorite chapters were the ones where they were on the boat. My least favorites were when Frank would just faint for months at a time.

Picture is of the pumpkin I bought today because the lady at the register said it looked like Frankenstein. (I didn‘t tell her she meant the creature.)

I noticed some mixed reactions as I left the sold out nighttime showing of Del Toro's latest. Personally? I loved it. I think that if you have read the, & enjoyed, the book you will be pleased. I think that otherwise it might seem too slow. Although there are a few liberties here & there it is a very faithful version & it is undoubtedly one of Del Toro's most visually stunning works.

LeahBergen I‘ll probably like it then! 👍 2w

Bookwomble I love Del Toro's films, I love Shelley's Frankenstein, I trust your literary sensibility, so I'm excited to see the film when it comes to Netflix! 🖤🧌🖤 2w

AmyG Thanks for the review. I will def catch this one. 2w

vivastory @Cathythoughts Hope you like it, Cathy. 2w

vivastory @Bookwomble Let me know your impressions when you see it. I've loved Del Toro since Devils Backbone and for me this is one of his best. A year or so ago I thought that we were going to have a second season of cabinet of curiosities. Turned out to be a dream. I was so bummed lol 2w

vivastory @AmyG 👍🖤 2w

Billypar I can't wait to see this. And I think The Devil's Backbone is one of his most slept-on films: one of the all-time ghost story greats imo. 2w

vivastory @Billypar Totally agree re: Devil's Backbone. 2w

Bookwomble @vivastory I really liked Cabinet of Curiosities, especially the Lovecraft adaptations (despite the liberties!). I'd guessed they weren't doing a second series after this time - so many good shows don't seem to get the traction they need 🫤 2w

vivastory @Bookwomble This is true. I read recently in Filterworld that around 70 percent of the NF content are series. That's why I'm so cautious of starting any of them. I mean Stranger Things is wrapping up a decade after it aired, but this is the new norm for streaming 2w

vivastory @Bookwomble I still need to watch season 4 of Stranger Things. I plan on doing so before season 5, but I read an article about the planned release dates for season 5 and it is wild. I have never seen anything like it 2w

ElizaMarie Do y'all think the creature would have spared Elizabeth if he didn't marry her? Victor is so selfish. I think he knew that the creature will kill her, and didn't do enough to protect her. Like maybe getting out of her life, it's not like he seemed super excited about getting married anyway. 2w

Bookwormjillk And yesterday I was so sure everything would be ok 😣 2w

dabbe You destroy the only thing the creature will love; then YOU get married and think you'll be all happy? THEN you let her go off to bed on her own? This is where one has to suspend their disbelief just a tad. 2w

peanutnine Frankie needs some impulse control. He really should have come up with a plan before revealing to the creature that he wasn't going through with the new creation, instead of letting him go off and wreak havoc (again) 2w

Clare-Dragonfly Oh, now he decides that he‘s not going back on his word? 🙄 I think the description of him dropping the bag of body parts into the ocean was the creepiest part of this book so far. 2w

ElizaMarie Where I am confused... He destroys the female creature, okay, how much was put together? Is he just throwing random organs and limbs in the ocean? Nobody cares? 2w

Clare-Dragonfly “Make another one of the people who horrified and disgusted you” doesn‘t sound like the greatest plan, but I guess the creature didn‘t think of “treat me like a human being and introduce me to other people as one so they‘ll get used to me,” and anyway I don‘t think Victor would go for that after the creature killed William. 3w

Frankenstein | Mary W. Shelley

My local library branch just reopened after renovations, so OF COURSE kiddo and I were here shortly after opening. This shelf display has me 🧐🤨 Is Frankenstein dark academia? Inquiring minds want to know.

MuddyPuddle Good question! 3w

Litsi No 3w

Cathythoughts I‘ve only just started the book, good question. Maybe not in the traditional sense, but I see dark academia here …. 3w

Clare-Dragonfly Huh… it‘s a stretch but not entirely wrong. Victor goes to university to do all his creating. 3w

ravenlee @MuddyPuddle @Litsi @Cathythoughts @Clare-Dragonfly I can see how you could make the argument, and I agree that there are elements of dark academia, but I think it‘s more adjacent than full-on DA. But while I know Frankenstein reasonably well, I‘m no expert on DA as a genre. 3w

KAO @TheAromaofBooks I take it back! The description of mysterious, misty paths in the mountains of Switzerland in this chapter seems ideal for the setting here! (My limited experiences in the Swiss Alps have mostly been glorious summer days where it was hard to let dark thoughts take up any space in one‘s mind in the face of such grandeur!) (edited) 4w

KAO I confess that I‘m flabbergasted that the creature has such fantastic thought processes and linguistic abilities!! All from the transplanted brain? Can‘t wait to learn more! 4w

See All 12 Comments

Bookwormjillk @KAO that‘s what I thought too! I didn‘t expect such an eloquent creature! 4w

dabbe The creature is highly intelligent and longs for companionship. Victor (the “father) shuns his creation JUST BECAUSE he is hideous on the outside. The creature then becomes hideous on the inside because of his abandonment by Victor. One just has to ask: which is more important to one's development as a human being? Nature or nurture? The easy answer is both are important, but the case for “nurture“ is about to be made by the creature in his tale. 4w

Sparklemn @dabbe Can‘t wait to hear the creature‘s sad tale. 4w

TheAromaofBooks @KAO - I guess any setting can be good for a bit of a horror story if it's stormy enough 😂 4w

dabbe @Sparklemn IKR? It's a doozy. 🖤 4w

ElizaMarie Where did he get the monsters brain? So where was he “hiding” how did the monster get so intelligent. He just wants his daddy to love him. 4w

julieclair The creature‘s eloquence was definitely a surprise! I‘m already beginning to feel a bit sorry for him. 4w

Sparklemn Is that a statue?? 😮 4w

dabbe @KAO You might be reading the original version, published in 1818, which only has 23 chapters. The second edition, which was edited by Mary Shelley, is usually the one that's read more; it was published in 1831. 4w

KAO @dabbe My cover does say “The original classic text.” No problem—I‘ll keep up! 4w

dabbe Of course, blame the help! Victor is now responsible for two deaths for not being forthcoming regarding his role in this fiasco. It seems that the creature is wreaking his revenge on Victor for abandoning him. All innocence is lost. 4w

KAO Meanwhile, ever since the beginning of this book, I‘ve been amazed that this takes place in Switzerland, of all places! So are these characters British transplants—and I missed that somehow? Or are they really speaking German, French, Italian, or Romansh (official languages of Switzerland), and we‘re just getting an English translation?? Just seems odd to me! 4w

KAO Okay—I had forgotten about the letters at the beginning! Robert Walton wrote to his family members from Russia and then later from his sea voyage about meeting this very sad fellow traveller (Victor, I assume), who spoke “in English, although with a foreign accent” and who later shared his tragic tale. I know he needed to be from a mysterious place, but Switzerland? 4w

Clare-Dragonfly Victor continues to be incredibly self-centered, insisting that he is the most tormented! 4w

ElizaMarie Poor Justine!!! 4w

Sparklemn Why didn‘t anyone at the trial ask how she could have had the physical strength to strangle a healthy young man with her bare hands? 🤷🏼‍♀️ 4w

TheAromaofBooks @KAO - Switzerland has a lot of dramatic settings, so it definitely helps 😂 4w

TheAromaofBooks @Sparklemn - Right? And why said healthy young man would just... let her?? 4w

KAO @TheAromaofBooks I guess you‘re right! My own experiences there have been quite limited and significantly less dramatic in a “great setting for a horror story” sense! 😂 4w

TheAromaofBooks @KAO - Ooooo I would love to visit Switzerland! I am sure photographs do not do it justice! 4w

Seabreeze_Reader @Clare-Dragonfly Those were my thoughts, too! He claims to be wretched but then basically does nothing. By this point, Victor should have been trying to track down his creation, knowing what will likely happen again. 4w

Clare-Dragonfly @Sparklemn @TheAromaofBooks I thought he was a child… 4w

Sparklemn @Clare-Dragonfly oh, he may be a child! I‘m not sure which brother is which. 4w

TheAromaofBooks @Sparklemn @Clare-Dragonfly - I think he was 7 or 8? And “tall for his age“ from Elizabeth's letter. I'm sure he could have been overpowered by a full-grown woman, but it still seems like it would have been a struggle, or that he would have had time to call out for help? 4w

dabbe Maybe the moms die to spur the children to grow up and go on their quest. Victor's mom definitely did that for him. I find it interesting, too, that Victor ignores the warnings of his first professor, Krempe, just as Walton seems to ignore Victor: both are blinded by their ambition to gain glory. Walton wants to find the northwest passage, and Victor wants to aid society through science. As @BarkingMadRead knowingly said, #whatcouldgowrong? 1mo
