First impression of Frankenstien by Mary Shelly, pages 1-24

My first impresion of this book was not the greatest. the way that i know Frankenstien is not the one being depicted in this story. Wen i think of it i think of a monsterous creature that causes destruction, but so far i have yet to read anything about this. It is to early in the book to really tell so im not going to jump and make any assumptions and call it a bad book. the format which it is written, which is through letters kind of throws me off as well. i am still lokking forward though to really see what this book has to offer.

this is good. its sounds intresting i might have to read it. But what goes on in the begining really? what does it explain anything important? Frankenstien comes off as a bad person is he?

Mike, it does take a bit to start. It'll be interesting to see how you feel about what the monster really is as compared to how it is portrayed in Hollywood.
