I read this book for category 24 "a book with a large cast of characters" for the 2020 Extreme Reading Challenge. I accidentally read Margaret Atwood's books out of order. I read The Testaments first, I'm glad I went back and read The Handmaid's Tale because it helped explain some things but still overall I didn't love it. My mind couldn't want to (didn't want to) wrap itself around such a dystopian future in which women had no rights. I really wrestled with this story. After thinking it over I felt convicted about how I take my rights foregranted in comparison to some of the situations women deal with in other countries.
