Not a review of the book! But please read!,

This review is from: Frankenstein: the original 1818 text (Broadview Literary Texts) (Paperback)
Amazon has included reviews of many editions of Frankenstein under one listing. That is to say, if you look at the reviews for any edition of Frankenstein the same 500+ reviews will come up. Before buying or commenting on these reviews check to see which edition you are reading reviews of or want to purchase. I'm a a fan of Amazon but for a bookseller to do this is irresponsible.
For those of you who want to know, the Broadview Literary Text edition of the original 1818 text is the standard scholarly edition as of the writing of this "review". It is packed with extra information and allows the reader a much broader picture of the work. I chose a one-star review to get attention only. I am trying to save money and prevent hassle and misunderstanding. The Broadview Literary Text edition deserves five. What Mary Shelley deserves is another story...
4.0 out of 5 stars
Read for class, first time read,

This review is from: Frankenstein: the original 1818 text (Broadview Literary Texts) (Paperback)
I read this for the first time for class. The extra stuff in the beginning allows you understand the context more and better analyze the text, (if that's what you're looking for). Otherwise its still a great book overall.
