Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood (2017, Hardcover)

Frightening, in that it could happen!

The author grabs you from the beginning of these women's story. She never let's you go. I cannot wait to read the next book. I felt their fear and despair. The background feels as real as my own town. Being uber rich in her world assures them of getting what they want when they want it, including taking another person and enslaving them until they're of no further use. Scary!Read full review

Couldn't put this book down!

This story is quite compelling...in fact, I found it hard to put down! The print is large enough for me to easily read with my very nearsighted eyes, the book not too heavy to hold for hours at a time (which is exactly how I ended up reading it-hours at a time). I could see how this story could possibly come true in real life with how the events in the book unfolded.

Seen through the eyes of Offred, the world of Gilead comes to life and the way her life changed and how it affected her and the people around her will stay with you for quite some time.

I can't wait to read the sequel!Read full review

love to be reading but no book!!

never got it!! please help, tom

Honestly

I recommend anyone to read the tale. Honestly it was way to wordy for me and skimmed my way through it. It's an especially important read since Roe vs Wade was turned over. Every woman should read it. Read full review

Endless details of whatever.

Non-stop detailed descriptions of everything in sight for 9 chapters was all I could read before giving up on interest in the story.
