Frankenstein…My First Impressions

feedbooks.com

   Okay I would like to start this blog out by introducing myself so those of you who are from our sister class know a little about me and why I may do somethings in my blog. My name is Haley Masker and I'm looking forward to the end of the school year because then I won't have to go to high school anymore. I love anything to do with the supernatural from books to movies. I love reading fantasies, horrors, and romances and the same goes for movies. I also write stories and poems that tend to be dark and hardly go with out a gory scene. I plan to attend college and get a bachelor's degree in creative writing and sculpture. I want to become a world famous author and be able to get things that I can not have now.
 
The book I chose was Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. I chose this book because I love horror and I hear it's a classic. If Dracula was on here I would have choose that, I'm a big fan of him. I also chose this book because I thought it would be interesting. It is an interesting book if I could just get past the beginning. I'm on page 35, but I haven't read that much. The first chapter doesn't start until page 26, so I've only read 10 pages.
 
   That alone took me awhile to read because of the way the book is written. There have been times when I had to read something 2 to 3 times just to make sure I understood it. There are some big words in here that I don't know plus some Italian, so it's kind of hard to keep up. So far the narrater is Victor, which I'm assuming is Doctor Frankenstein and he is telling the story. He has told how his parents met and how he met a girl who I think becomes his wife but I'm not sure yet. He has talked about her and his friend and his childhood other that that nothing else has happened. I really hope something excited happens soon. I want to get to the part where he makes the monster. That most likely won't so up until chapter 15 or something. I am looking forward to how it ends though and i plan to read more this weekend.
