After just having read Frankenstein in October, it seemed like the perfect time for me to read this book as well. I had a lot of fun with Mary and Ada - I think it's a very interesting choice to put together the stories of Mary Shelley and Ada Lovelace, as there were no proven real-life connections, but it made sense. I had fun with the fae part and the robot-turned-human, and how the experiences in the story contributed to Mary essentially writing Frankenstein. I also liked that the story was focussed on female friendship and not so much on romance. But I feel like the story was twisted a bit too much in terms of Percy Shelley being kinda a bad character and Mary having done no wrong, whereas in reality, they both were messy and complicated people and I just wish there would have been a comment somewhere that Mary was far from the perfect "Saint" the book tries to portray her as. "But I love you", he said. [...] "Perhaps you love the idea of me, Shelley", she said. "But that is not me".
