mountainpeach 's review for:

The Testaments by Margaret Atwood
4.0
dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: No

Overall I enjoyed this more than The Handmaids Tale. The writing was smoother. It was easier to get into the story. I felt more connected with the characters, even Aunt Lydia. The ending was a little too neatly tied up. I wanted more about how Gilead ended and why the symposium was started. Particularly at the end of the The Handmaids Tale the symposium notes were more interesting and engaging.
