You · Joe Goldberg

Paco's book club: Frankenstein

Mary Shelley was 20 when this came out anonymously in 1818. It is about a man who makes something, ignores it, and acts shocked at the result, which is also a fair review of Joe's relationships.

Carrie · Peter Morton

Quoted: Frankenstein

Guidance counselor Peter Morton quotes it to Carrie: nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change. She tells him she doesn't like scary stories. Bold position for the lead in a Stephen King adaptation.
