caerulum 's review for:
The Handmaid's Tale

dark
mysterious
reflective
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
good book, characters somewhat flat and meant to represent a type of reaction to society rather than be full fledged characters, which is pretty common in dystopia and works well here. i personally loved the writing style but if you need everything to be linear and make sense it might not be for you.
