Love & Other Monsters by Emily Franklin

Inspired by the extraordinary summer of 1816 that gave birth to Frankenstein, Love & Other Monsters reimagines the life of Claire Clairmont—the overlooked stepsister of Mary Shelley—as she navigates love, ambition, betrayal, and the creative passions of history’s most legendary literary circle. Rich in atmosphere and emotional depth, this evocative novel explores the women whose stories have too often been left out of literary history.
