I had to turn in my Feminist Badge when I realized that nothing would ever make me like Handmaid's Tale.
I know it's a Classic And All, but I just. don't. like. it. It was hell to slog through and I would feel in no way diminished if I never even thought about it for three seconds ever again. :/
(Sigh.) And yet Cat's Eye is one of my favorite books ever. Atwood to me is a writer who when she's on, she's really on, and when she's off... I'm comatose. :p
