Book Review of Frankenstein (Dover Thrift Editions)

Shelley's writing is definetely stodgy. But not in a bad way. Most of the 'Sci-Fi' back when was filled with stodgy writing, probably to sound a whole lot smarter than I am. However, the book was definetly slower than I thought it would be and a lot different from the Frankenstein I grew up watching. This monster would beat the bee-jebus out of the one in Monster Squad. All in all, I think its an OK read; GREAT if you are really into Frankie.
