Frequently requested, we can’t be without Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. Currently we carry this Penguin pb with cover art by Marci Washington & original 1818 text. Criticized as perverse and immoral, a monstrous woman; she reworked the text in 1831. #stafffavorites #classicreads #frankenstein

Sisters Pizza is perfect for a Hillcrest stroll and shop outing. Younger sister Emily opened Sisters Pizza in honor of her older sister Kate, who loved “pizza, friends, family and civic responsibility.”
