I love this genre and think that the book is great, unique and just super messed up in the best way.

The end got me SO MAD.
This should def have been a trilogy because we miss CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT.

Reread (for maybe the third time?) so I can read The Testaments. It's amazing how this book becomes more and more relevant as time goes on. I get more out of it each time I read it
