Red Clocks by Leni Zumas

2.0

TBH I was interested in listening to this book first because of the cover. I love the design and the colors. Then because of its comparison to The Handmaid's Tale, which I just listened to for the first time recently.

This book is not as good as Atwood's. It was hard to get through this story, with its unsympathetic characters and the one shitty main character trying to get pregnant via fertility treatments.

I am glad that the Mattie didn't keep her baby and give it to Ro, though I did root for that a bit, being infertile myself. It was a neat punch that wasn't pooled.

Despite this, I did not like this book and wouldn't want to read this author's work again.
