Our girl discovered astronomy and is hyperfocused on studying the starry skies. I kind of relate (with the hyperfocus, not the astronomy).

Ghosts and monsters?

She’s having a mental breakdown. Neurosis. She is not well.

Brilliant how the way the main character describes the events changes throughout the book. It seems like she may be going through phases of grief? She first was in denial and shock, hoping it will go away on its own, now she is at fighting, analysing, looking for solutions, loopholes. Super interesting to observe the change!

It is brilliant!

" The tortures of the accused did not equal mine;"
"Despair! Who dares to talk of that? The poor victim, who on the morrow was to pass the dreary boundary between life and death, felt not as I did, such deep and bitter agony."

Oh Victor, you narcissistic and toxic man. YOU suffer the most, of course.

How quickly was Victor to claim that his creation was the murderer!
