This book had great themes, especially surrounding women's oppression. But the novel could of used some better editing as the length makes the pace of the plot choppy. A decent read.
I loved this book and had a hard time putting it down. It's a really great metaphor for rape culture and statescraft.
I fell in love with the lore in this world, and found myself wanting to hear more about some of the supporting characters (the parents of Celeste, Marie's mother, the teachers on the Mountain, Julia, Miles).
I will say: this is completely a dark fantasy/fiction book. There likely won't be explanations for how/why the moles, freckles & birthmarks change on women's bodies (there certainly was not in this book). If the lack of explanation is likely to bother you, I do not recommend this book to you, as it does require some suspension of belief.
I have not read the Handmaid's Tale yet, but I do understand this is the YA version of it.
