I read this book after watching the video by John Green in his CrashCourse channel. I wanted to read this book critically as the JG pointed out. I wanted to feel what characters are feeling and get the essence of the book. But I think I couldn't empathize with any character in this book. I hated the Victor for his cowardice and lack of taking responsibility of his own acts. He should been sympathetic to his own creation, like mom loves her child however ugly s/he is. I hated the monster for killing so many innocent and Walton for helping Victor. I couldn't understand the meaning of this book; what author wanted to say. If it is that human should not play with nature then this message comes only in passing. In the end I felt nothing. Just happy that it was ended.
