Velshi Banned Book Club: ‘Frankenstein’ by Mary Shelley Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” is a pioneering work of both science fiction and patriarchal criticism. It’s a warning that science can go too far, an examination of maternal guilt, or a story of how monsters get created. Regardless of your reading, there are few stories, literary or otherwise, that have such ubiquitous recognition, fascination, and appeal across generations.

Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” has a lot to tell us about culture today, including why reading is so important. UCSB professor Julie Carlson & author @kierstenwhite.bsky.social say, “Reading is where the creature discovers feeling and thought, & the history of the world.” #VelshiBannedBookClub

Am I going to scare you? Yes. But am I also going to make you cry? Yes. But is it going to feel like a gentle hug at the end? Only if it’s Mister Magic, definitely not if it’s HIDE.

I’m reading THE BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER right now and Stephen Graham Jones’ astonishing work with voice from book to book honestly floors me.

Thanks!

Two explanations!

One, it’s the marker that this is an ever-so-slightly shifted version of that reality.

Or…

Two, despite all my research and extensive notes and lifelong love of DRACULA, I somehow read it as Goldaming MY ENTIRE LIFE and didn’t realize until too late 😂

I love the Murderbot books with my whole heart, so much so that the adaptation actually makes me nervous when usually I don’t care BUT I will absolutely be watching.

(Also read WITCH KING while you wait and marvel at Wells’ genre-spanning talent.)

Good life choices

💙💙💙

The Dexter Jettster club is the best club!!

You’re a good friend 😂

Fun fact I’m ex-Mormon 😘
