I enjoyed this. The start was slow but it progressed better towards the end. All of the characters are well rounded. At first it felt a bit TOO handmaids tale/hunger games esque but I feel like it lost that towards the end and felt more original. Although there were a lot of characters, they all had individual personalities and they didn’t get mixed around in my head like they sometimes can. Everyone was lovable and well rounded. A true piece of feminist fiction.
