There is quite a bit of jumping around in perspective, not just between Ren and Toby, but between first and third person. Not everyone is going to appreciate the Gardener hyms or Adam One's speeches. It depends on if you like novels that do that sort of thing. I thought it went well with the tone of the story.<br /><br />Teacher, I LOVE The Handmaid's Tale. I've actually been itching to re-read it. But after reading this, I think if I re-read an Atwood, it might have to be Oryx and Crake. We'll see.Lonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16248163148722597124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30889172.post-34348154980650875392011-01-31T14:26:27.905-05:002011-01-31T14:26:27.905-05:00This sounds fantastic!

I fell in love with Atwood's work last year after reading The Handmaid's Tale (which I know is one of your all-time faves), and I have O&C on my shelf begging to be read. I'll definitely read YOFTF as soon as I can!Teacher/Learnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280690822570558469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30889172.post-91797281583286613432011-01-31T11:06:08.142-05:002011-01-31T11:06:08.142-05:00I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it too.

A lot of the reviews that I've read have been negative or mixed, but it was one of my favourite books of 2009.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390357169573998035noreply@blogger.com
