Red Clocks
by Leni Zumas
I chose this book as my Book of the Month pick based on their description of the plot, which sounded intriguing and not entirely outside the realm of possibility (which makes it more frightening).
After seeing some mixed reviews on here, I’m happy to report that I loved this book and read it over the course of a day because I just couldn’t put it down. While I’m not entirely sure the biography portions came together for me in a way that was incredibly meaningful, I was engaged throughout and very much compelled by the four other main characters (aside from Eivor).
To put this solely in the category of dystopian feminist lit, or speculative fiction, while denigrating neither category, reduces the book to a label that can’t really encapsulate the book’s nuances. It’s definitely worth a read!
