Read via audiobook 🎧 4.5 on StoryGraph. 

I guess I’m now a Kristen Hannah girlie? Definitely not a light read. This was one of those books that I talked about throughout the day with people. I was comparing it now to the times we live in. When would I leave? Where would I go? Cuz I would be handmaid for sure.
