The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
3.0
I love the overall story of this - the message totally resonates with me and world seems so possible and terrifying.
But the book overall was just okay to me. My biggest issue with this was some of Offred's ramblings become so incoherent and difficult to follow. When she's relaying conversations it was so difficult to distinguish what was actually said and what is her own commentary. So I found myself skimming a lot of the "conversations" and details.
