A review by allycmerritt
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

challenging dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Reeling a bit after having finally read this eerily relevant 80s dystopian novel... this should be required reading for any North American who has interest in how governments may try to control women and their bodies.
