I listened to this as an audiobook narrated by Moira Quirk and I highly recommend! I recommend any books narrated by her, she imbues a lot of emotion and tension into her reading style that really sucks you in. I wonder if I would have liked this book as much without her charming narration, but I think so. It is what it says on the tin, Victor Frankenstein had a sister who worked with him and she made her own man to be her match. Romance, drama, moral quandaries, and hilarity ensue. If you don't like romance in general you may not like this, since that's what it is at its core with a blanket of spookiness over the top. That worked great for me, since I love spooky stuff and I love romances. My biggest issue I think is that it had a weird mixed message about religion? It felt out of place.
