actual rating: 3.5

I was worried this would be a bit 'too YA' for me, but I actually ended up really liking it. Don't get me wrong, there was a lot of high school drama and kind of a love triangle [...or square?] and other stuff, but I actually don't seem to mind excessive teen drama in Frankenstein retellings in general. It just always seems so in character because Victor [or in this case Victoria] Frankenstein is 100% that bitch.

Anyway, this was an interesting read and went pretty fast considering how long it was [I know it doesn't sound long by page count but it was over 100k by word count]. There's the classic reanimated corpse storyline and then also a series of murders that are taking place and it all comes together really well at the end. I don't think I will read the other books in the series [I am not really into Jekyll and Hyde or Phantom of the Opera] but I definitely ended up enjoying this one.
