Really enjoyed it all the way through, but I thought the ending felt rushed and tied together too neatly. It didn't seem realistic.

Even though I finished the book I'm still not really sure what the point of it was. And the ending seemed sort of slobby as if she got bored of writing but didn't quite know how to end it.

SPOILER:




I kept waiting for the main character, Joan to start developing and using her special powers, but she never did.

What was that ending? I do prefer Atwood's realistic fiction, and this proves it.
