An engaging read for the current times. The parallels between the real world and the events in the book are at times scary though the realistic details is what made it almost impossible to put down.
I absolutely loved the midwife. Finally a character facing a dystopian society who is realistic and (mostly) selfish in order to survive. I also enjoyed the narrative style with the diaries. A great read, but be aware of explicit and graphic scenes.
