The story: 16-year-old Mary Godwin falls in love with Percy Shelley and risks the life of an outcast in order to be with him. This biography marries verse and a graphic novel format to present the story of their doomed love affair and her rise to fame as the author of "Frankenstein".
Liz's comments: On-page sexual content (pictures too!), although "tasteful", render this better for HS, even though critics seem to think it's good for 7th grade and up. It's the rare MS student who would wade through this one.
