The Handmaid's Tale: The Graphic Novel by Margaret Atwood

love the adaptation! some of the spreads are so incredible and invoke many strong emotions. best enjoyed after reading the original handmaid’s tale, seeing as some of the smaller details and information are lost from the transition from novel to graphic novel (as one would expect).

The Handmaid's Tale is one of my favorite novels ever and I LOOOOOVE graphic novels. So, of course I was super excited to pick up the new graphic novel version of The Handmaid's Tale that was released this year. I was NOT disappointed. I absolutely loved this book. So good! And, if you want to check out The Testaments (sequel to The Handmaid's Tale released this year), this graphic novel is a great way to get a refresher on the original story.

Definitely pick up this book! HIGHLY recommend!
