I was very excited when I saw the synopsis and what this book was about. I absolutely love Mary Shelley and was curious the spin that the author would do on her grief.
It was a very easy read and I enjoyed how the author wrote.
It's a novella that dives into the grief and love that comes between "friends" when one is loss. It is heart breaking to think that she wasn't able to even attend the cremation of her husband due to her sex.
I wasn't really a huge fan of the second part of the novella where it dived into what may have occurred on the boat that Shelley died on. It felt out of placed considering the text you read in the first half.
