I love Margaret Atwood. I think this trilogy is well done. However... I don't love it. I want to, but I don't.It's mainly an aesthetic thing, I think. Perhaps a bit of my not finding quite the same things funny that Atwood does. This book begins with a very helpful brief summary of the previous two ...
I ended up liking this one more than I thought I would, since the first few parts were really slow and I couldn't remember anything about Year of the Flood so I was a little lost.
