Scott Sowers is on page 65 of 224 of Frankenstein
As a fan of the classic horror movies, I must say this is not what I was expecting. The writing is solid in a traditional, classic literature format and it's holding my attention. A lot of it is told through letters back and for the between the main characters and the story opens (another surprise) with the introduction of an arctic adventure.

Plot is thickening, new characters are being introduced. Going kind of deep into the internal workings of the ministry but it's tolerable.

I have a soft spot for sci-fi and picked this up somewhat randomly. So far, so good.

I read part of this book in one of its earlier forms as the author worked part of it through the novel group I lead. The plot follows an arranged marriage loaded with Indian-American culture in a small Ohio town. Very interesting stuff...

I have a buddy who loves Lee Child and the guy sell a lot of books, so here we go. Turns out, I saw the movie that this book was based on, which I didn't know when I bought the book. Oh well, I like the writing style and the plot remains engaging, so far...

I'm really enjoying this. At times it's a bit heavy on the interior monologue but the plot is still moving along.

So far, so good. Intriguing main character, nice dips into a backstory but the slightly wacky plot keeps moving forward.

Fun read so far. I read Huckleberry Finn as a kid and from what I remember, the plot is tracking the original version.

Okay, I'm admitting upfront that I am scanning parts of this. The detail is incredible and often overwhelming. I'm reading this partially for research purposes. The writing is strong as you would expect a Pulitzer Prize winner to be. Wish me luck.

As the plot widens I become aware that one of the most interesting and main characters has been mostly sidelined while a not that interesting sub-plot takes center stage. Curious to see all this gets wrapped up.

The plot expands, heading towards a breaking point with a quarter left to go. Always curious to see how it all gets tied together, aren't you?

The plot takes a slight turn, foreshadowing or a feint?

Off to a good start. I'm a sucker for con game stories and we've already revealed the the classic shortchange maneuver, the dealing of phony pharmaceuticals, and deceit.
