So I just found out about this, Margaret Atwood revealed it via twitter yesterday I even had to create the book data myself on goodreads so I could write this update I really did not see this coming did anyone I m excited and surprised The Handmaid s Tale felt like such a closed book, so it will be real interesting to see where this one goes I wonder if she decided to write this after the success of the television adaptation or the show was made because this book was being written Either way, I can t wait to read it It s set 15 years after the first book which was published 33 years ago and it has 3 female narrators I hope it carries with it the same depth and power as the first one So I will be reading and reviewing this one come September It s certainly a release not to be missed
Holy shit is this real Because I need it
Based on the scary prophetic power of some of Margaret Atwood s other dystopian social studies, I am not sure I can even stomach the idea of what will happen to Offred next May I suggest a feel good start, changing her name into Nofred No, that s not going to happen I think the world is currently growing into Margaret Atwood s new novel, demonstrating the insanity a bit each day Getting very, very impatient by now If I were to embrace a religion No , it would have to be the religion of literature, and I would praise the special god in Atwood s MaddAddam every day by now Oh Fuck , as Snowman the Jimmy said only when it was really, really bad which was quite often.
Edit 2 OMG I just noticed the girl stretching In the ladies cloakEDit WE HAVE A COVER I don t really understand it s like the same cover as book oneOH MY GOSH I M SO EXCITED but I need to know Which dum dum gave this a low rating Goodreads Blog Twitch Pinterest Buy Reddit
A sequel to The Handmaid s Tale Hmm So, as much as Atwood is involved with the production of the TV show, is it going to be some kind of novelization of the second season If it is, I am not sure I d be interested Although this 15 years after gives me a little hopeP.S Apparently, I can be at peace According to Guardian, The Testaments will be set 15 years after Offred s final scene in The Handmaid s Tale and is narrated by three female characters It will not be connected to the television adaptation of The Handmaid s Tale, which has extended beyond Atwood s 1985 novel to continue Offred s story.
I m so excited for this
Officially my most anticipated read of 2019 Cannot wait for this
Honestly, I m scared.
