This is an amazing yet terrifying boo, all the difficulties our main character had to go through in a horrible place. I was anxious almost the whole time for her because all I wanted was her to escape. Still, I liked this book a lot because precisely aims to make me feel the character's feelings.

I’ve given myself permission to not finish books I just don’t enjoy and I’m really not into this one. Run-on sentences, no quotations in dialogue, just not my style altogether. Maybe the show is good but I just can’t get into this book at all.
I was hesitant to read this book since I had already watched the TV series. A story that I have already experienced is difficult for me to read because it doesn’t usually hold my attention the same way. That was not the case with this book. I am so glad I decided to read this. Margaret Attwood’s writing is so poetic. I loved getting a different look at one of my favorite TV characters.
Amazing story
It makes you stop and think of how we could wake up to this situation any day. It is frightening to really think about it.
The story is told so beautifully through the eyes of the handmaid.
Loved it. Haven’t watched the series because I wanted to read the book first, so glad I did.
