My Book of Choice

I picked Frankenstein by Mary Shelley mainly because - with no intent to brag - I'd read most of the books on the list already, and that it was one of the few books that I had not read. I also chose it because, let's face it, everyone knows about the monstrous Frankenstein, and I was curious to know the real story behind it all. It's also an all-time classic, which is good, but that also means my expectations for it are high. I hope I'll enjoy reading it, and that it's as thrilling and romantic (not in the falling-in-love sense of course) as it's all cracked up to be. I'm scared that the book will disappoint me, however, seeing as it's a classic, I doubt it will. It's a well-deserved honor for book to be dubbed classics, so I'm sure it'll be interesting. Frankenstein is around 280 pages long, so it's reasonably length. Long, but not long enough to be scary.
