Offred called herself “Ovaries” sometimes I do the same but it’s just not the same.
Hiding away to play a game of scrabble is pathetic and poetic. Offred had some good words as well, which is frustrating. She let him win the second round as well.
Lord I hate everything. That’s it.

So, the men ruined the world and forced women to follow the bible. Yet, as the commander says, its nature to want variety and different women…. Saying women bought clothes to be different everyday.
Shoot me. It’s very funny how she said “I’m getting fed up with him” not long after he went on taking about this none sense.

Even in a world where women essentially have no rights, it’s still set in a perspective where women fight against one another. Oh she got pregnant, lucky her. Oh she had a miscarriage, probably from being a whore. It’s subtle but there.
I’m terrified this novel will have a shitty ending. By that I mean it will make me devastated and depressed in a good way…

Hearing how the world got this way is so freaky. It’s not completely far fetched and slowly I think our world is reaching this.
I will find the nearest light fixture before I let this life become mine.

If this plot ever happens in my lifetime, I’ll check myself out.
“-your feet and your hands are not essential.” Describing being a handmaid.
The way the man, wife and maid get it on was so uncomfortable yet normal. Even Offred wanted to laugh.

This book is taking a toll on me.
It has me thinking, I would hate to be assigned this book if I was a teenage boy, because I cannot see them relating or understanding even the basic words. This thought has broken me and further aches my heart as I read, also the scary future of this world right now.
God help us- actually no stay away!

This truely shows how much women think. Just in general, I understand the world Offred is in and how she should be a certain way but it still doesn’t change her head.
Speaking with friends sounds like a luxury so of course everything is in her mind.

Thrown into this world wasn’t as jarring as I expected. I’m getting a sense of what’s in store for me while I read and it isn’t looking good.
Whatever this story holds, I’m afraid it will ruin me or set me up for disaster. Regardless, I’m eager to see what is in store.
