Like Margaret Atwood's other books, this book is both entertaining on its face, and a deep social commentary. Not a dissappointment, but didn't blow me away either. Maybe because I couldn't really relate to the protagonists.
Graphic: Ableism, Murder, Sexual content, and Sexual harassment
Moderate: Misogyny, Violence, and Trafficking
Minor: Sexual violence
Men are not portrayed in the best light in this book. So much so, that it can be a bit of a distraction, and may be a hurdle that may prevent readers who identify as male from getting the satire.wormgirl's review against another edition
