Thanks for starting this!

I haven't read it yet but I do plan on it!

sourburst · 06-02-2017, 03:49 AM

This is hands down one of the best books I have ever read. Top 3 books.

I first read it back in school, and everyone hated it but me, it was the beginning of my love for dystopian novels.

heartღaflutter · 06-02-2017, 04:29 AM

kinda funny how everybody hated it, maybe they are all watching the show now

I do love that Margaret Atwood is consulting on the show (and even made a cameo appereance

)

She's so talented though. At least 3 of her novels are in my top ten books.

sourburst · 06-05-2017, 05:25 AM

I don't think I'd hate it, after all i studied chaucer

la villanelle · 06-05-2017, 12:57 PM

I don't think anyone would dislike them. They're really interesting

Thanks for starting this.

I've been wanting to do a reread. I just need to find the time.

la villanelle · 06-08-2017, 01:04 PM

Yeah its definitely a book you need time a concentration on

kayrey · 06-08-2017, 01:37 PM

That's for sure. I'll probably do it once the season has ended so I can compare and contrast.

la villanelle · 06-12-2017, 08:35 AM

Good idea. Maybe if enough people want to read it, wr can do some sort of book club for it. Idk

**wickedrum** · 06-14-2017, 06:31 AM

Does the book go beyond episode 10? Cause if so, I need to read, right now!

la villanelle · 06-14-2017, 12:06 PM

heartღaflutter · 06-14-2017, 01:04 PM
