Despite my love for pandemic induced apocalyptic novels, I just felt like the characters here fell flat. It's hard for me when there's not a single character I care about. I'm looking forward to the next book where the main characters seem like they don't come from such a place of privilege. I'm infinitely more interested in the people who didn't grow up in the compounds.

At times the book felt a bit flat and slow moving plot, and at times, predictably so, Ms Atwood has you contemplating our current reality and how this translates into this future dystopian world. For awhile I was scratching my head at how everything pieced together and the end leaves you with a cliffhanger for the cuter MadAddam books. I definitely still enjoyed it overall.
