I buy a copy every time I see one to put up on my available book list because everybody should read this book.

I received this in the mail today - Thanks quinnsmom! I've never read it, so I can't wait to start it. I'll write more once I do. Thanks again!

I don't know why I waited so long to read this book. I think it's because I got the impression from a few reviews on BookCrossing that it was a bit slow going. But I thought the pace was just fine. It was a gripping tale that I finished in just a few sittings. I'm not sure I liked the ending - I'll have to think about it a bit. I definately want to read some more Margaret Atwood books.

This wishlist book will be in the mail to Thursday5 next. Sorry I held on to it for so long.

The Handmaid's Tale has arrived in Ohio safe and sound. I have been looking forward to reading this book for a long time. Thank you RABCK ILuvToRead2!

PS
ILuvToRead2 is now on the "Yellow Sunshine List" on my bookshelf.

This is a book every woman should read. The copyright is 1985 but is is frighteningly relevant today.

I will pass it on to someone who will understand and appreciate the message of the book-- and I think I will do what quinnsmom said in the first journal entry for this copy-buy it whenever I see the book at a used bookstore and make it available.
