The forgotten story of a young woman who inspired love, lust, art, and betrayal, from the bestselling author of The Lioness of Boston.

During the dangerous summer storms of 1816, a group of famous young writers gathered at a mansion on the shores of Lake Geneva, Switzerland. Brilliant Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, her fiery fiancé Percy Shelley, the famously promiscuous Lord Byron, and John Polidori, his sexually tormented personal physician. At the group’s center was Claire Clairmont, Mary’s impressionable, clever, and dangerously loyal stepsister.

Those months of desire and scandal gave the world the works of Frankenstein, the modern vampire, and the mythic image of these Romantic literary giants. In this intense and propulsive story, Claire tries to solve the mystery of why she was all but erased from history.

Fueled by Jane Austen’s romantic novels, and believing love offers freedom, Claire begins an affair with celebrity Lord Byron and convinces Mary and Shelley to follow him to Switzerland. With the threat of paparazzi lurking nearby, Claire’s intimate connection to each member of the celebrity group grows more complex. Their escapade takes a darker turn as each traveler is forced to contend with their own secrets and betrayals.

With searing relevance to our here and now—of celebrity worship, climate disaster, of complicated femininity, Love & Other Monsters is the untold origin story of Frankenstein, a feminist reckoning of sisters, survival, and the creation of monsters—both those on the page and those who walk among us.

INDIE PRESS FICTION BESTSELLER

“Ravishing....Blending history with heart-quickening fiction.” Shelf Awareness

“Titillating, scintillating...a burning tale of badly behaving literary luminaries that drips with juicy details.” BookPage

“Transfixing...the book’s sensual, immersive prose balances Claire’s yearnings and frustrations with the brilliance, insecurities, and quirks of her companions.” Foreword Reviews, Editor’s Choice

Love & Other Monsters is the reason to read historical fiction: a completely immersive voice and experience, transporting you out of your own time and place, landing you somewhere else entirely. Every time I picked up this book I felt like I was knocking on a door to another world.” Ben Shattuck, author of The History of Sound

“The author’s lyrical prose...is a devoted restoration of a figure whose presence and contribution were obscured by men’s—and Mary’s—interventions. A satisfying...act of literary reanimation.” Kirkus

“A rare literary achievement with prose as beautiful as a painting and a story that is propulsively page-turning. I could not put down this thought-provoking, poignant, well-researched yet wholly original novel.” Jennifer Rosner, author of Once We Were Home

“A gorgeous tour de force. Magnificent and fiercely told. Emily Franklin breathes life into an untold history that feels entirely relevant to our world today.” Dawn Tripp, author of Jackie

Love & Other Monsters is an intricate and moving story about power dynamics, sisters, celebrity, lust, and the importance of art and storytelling. I loved this book.” Annie Hartnett, author of The Road to Tender Hearts

Love & Other Monsters is at once a portrait of a passionate woman hemmed in by her time and place and an encounter with perennial questions: how is the self formed in relationship to others? What must we sacrifice for love? For art? Emily Franklin has written a moving and fascinating book.” Elizabeth Graver, author of Kantika

“Emily Franklin’s novel is as thrilling and tempestuous as the storm-battered summer that inspired Frankenstein. This is a rich, haunting novel about the monsters among us, the ones we create, and the ones we harbor within ourselves.” David Lindsay-Abaire, Pulitzer/Tony Award Winning playwright

“In Love & Other Monsters, Emily Franklin masterfully reveals how everyday decisions can morph into monsters. I was hooked from the first witticism on the first page, and readers will find much to cheer, groan, rage, weep, and laugh about in this captivating story.” Maria Pinto, author of Fearless, Sleepless, Deathless

“A thoroughly researched and intimately written story of sisterhood, celebrity, and obsession.” Meg Waite Clayton, author of Typewriter Beach

Charming Earring Display
Style: TREE, Style: TREE
I’m using this wooden jewelry tree as a display for my fun earring collection, and I love how cute and creative it looks! It comes in three pieces and is easy to assemble, though I did need a hammer to tap the pieces flush. I wish the earring holes were spaced a bit farther apart in some areas, but overall, it’s a charming and functional stand. Makes a great gift for any jewelry lover!

Perfect Drawer Organizers—Love the Assorted Sizes
Color: Clear
I really love these drawer organizers. The quality is great, and the assorted sizes are exactly why I decided to purchase them. I used a few inside my vanity to help keep everything more organized, and they work perfectly for separating smaller items without everything getting cluttered together. I like that there are multiple sizes included because it makes it easy to customize the layout for different drawers and products. One feature I really appreciate is the non-slip bottom. They stay in place well and don’t slide around every time I open and close my drawers, which makes a huge difference. The clear plastic design also makes it easy to quickly see where everything is without digging through the drawer making a mess. They feel sturdy and durable, not flimsy like some other organizers I’ve tried. I also like that they can be stacked when not in use, which helps save space. Best for: vanities, makeup organization, bathroom drawers, office supplies, and general home organization Overall, these are practical, well made, and really help make drawers look cleaner and more organized. Definitely happy with my purchase.

Clear, Stable, and Surprisingly Better Than IKEA
Color: Clear
I didn’t expect to be this impressed by drawer organizers, but the Vtopmart 25 PCS Clear Plastic Drawer Organizers really delivered. The non-slip silicone pads actually work — once placed, the trays don’t slide around at all, even when opening and closing drawers frequently. That alone makes a huge difference in daily use. What I love most is how much space they save while keeping everything clearly visible. The clear plastic makes it easy to find what I need at a glance, and the variety of sizes lets me customize each drawer instead of forcing everything into awkward layouts. All the organizers have a solid, usable depth, so items don’t tip over or feel cramped. Cleaning is effortless — a quick wipe and they look new again. Compared to IKEA organizers I’ve used before, these feel more practical, easier to maintain, and honestly more flexible. Add in the great price for a 25-piece set, and this feels like one of those simple purchases that quietly makes everyday life more organized and less frustrating.
