Book #20: The Handmaid's Tale

Title: The Handmaid's Tale
Author: Margaret Atwood

I wrote about how surprised I was by the fact that I liked The Handmaid's Tale here. But like it I did. I was also surprised that even though apparently a lot of our group hated it, we had a relatively well-behaved and contention-free book club discussion about it. Remember ladies, "well-behaved women seldom make history." If you haven't read The Handmaid's Tale, read it, prepare to get angry, and let the feminist inside of you come to the surface and take over for a while. You'll feel so much better if you let her get out every once in a while.
