Dr. Frankenstein

     The character that I had the strongest reaction to was Dr. Frankenstein, himself. I felt as though he was overly dramatic in his reactions to most circumstances. For example, he fell into a depressive state for many months after he saw his monster. Granted, the monster was an abomination, I don't think it warranted that sort of reaction. I feel as though the book could have been stronger, if its main character were a more stable person. Mary Shelly spends, in my opinion, too much time explaining the manic state that Frankenstein was in, rather than establishing other characters, the plot, or the depth of the book further. Even though my opinion on Dr. Frankenstein was negative, his character had the biggest impact on me.
