I have no words to explain how much I like it this book... The descriptions are great the story is very fast paced and it tell the story little by little giving us an idea of how what happen she also show us some endings and leave us with an open ending of the main characters.
The future here is dark, it shows how all the efforts of women in the last couple of centuries had been turn down and the world instead of going forward goes back... There is a clear influence of 1984 Is my first five star

A freaky futuristic novel about government taking full control of a society where men rule the world. Handmaids have a specific role and that it to breed. It’s well crafted and uniquely written...4 stars!

This book was about a totalitarian society in America that surpresses women. It was definitely interesting.
