I have mixed feelings on this one. As much as I enjoyed reading it, I don't know that I necessarily liked it. Possibly because it was so depressing. However, it was one of the most unique books I have ever read and I know I will think about it for years to come. I would have rated it higher, but I am disappointed by the lack of background and context for the situation of the women.
