Book Reviews of Handmaid's Tale (Bloom's Guides)

Book Review: Why Would Anyone Give This Only 4 Stars?
Summary: 5 Stars

This is easily the most impactful book I have ever read. It is brilliant, in every sense of the word. Every woman should own a copy! "Progressed" men will benefit, too. If you can avoid reading the reviews of this book that describe the whole thing, you'll enjoy it a lot more. I hate when people tell me the story before I get a chance to read it. Be prepared, this book has a strong message.
