Ariane’s Reviews > The Handmaid’s Tale > Status Update

I’m about a third of the way through and just decided to set this aside (permanently?) It’s really doing nothing for me - I don’t enjoy these sorts of stories (grim, societal collapse) or her style (dry, full of vagueness). I almost never quit books, but am feeling very “life’s too short” these days, and I don’t want to spend the holidays slogging through it.
