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!

I wanted to get a refresher on the book before starting the tv show, mostly to see if it was as crushing as I remember. This graphic novel was just the ticket. It is hauntingly drawn. The bleeding and blotching of color stirred up my guts. Beautifully done.
