This book is very thought provoking, it really puts a mirror in front of our society here and now to reflect our behaviours. I don't know if I would actually consider this book feminist because the book mostly just put down men instead of showing how powerful women could be/are.
I really like the conversation this book provokes around power and nature/nurture topics.

tries to be the handmaid's tale but just doesn't cut it. cool premise to start with but ends up reiterating gendered power rather than transforming the idea. dark ending that just conveys hopelessness about humanity instead of matching up to the exciting and empowering beginning
