This is written from multiple perspectives, and as the story unravels we understand how these narratives are connected. I enjoyed the different perspectives, and the writing style, even though it is different from The Handmaid's tale. I would say that the narrators seem much more reliable in this book, and the writing style is more direct. The beauty for me, and the reason I give it a 5, is in the obvious but unsaid, and the small moments that made me want to cry for days.
