Book Review: The Handmaid’s Tale
September 24, 2023
The characters are complex and relatable, and their struggles in this nightmarish world evoke deep empathy.
Doyel finds herself to be a wanderer of sorts. She dips into sci-fi, fantasy, popular fiction and loves the giggles that come with a good old romance novel. She regularly geeks out over everything astronomy, but more recently her favourite reads have been children’s books from authors like Julia Donaldson, Emily Gravett, Emily Winfield Martin as she navigates life as a mum to her book-hungry toddler.
The characters are complex and relatable, and their struggles in this nightmarish world evoke deep empathy.
As a passionate reader of mystery fiction, I can confidently say that this book is one of the finest in the genre.
