Favorite Quotes:
“Because you may think a bed is a peaceful thing, Sir, and to you it may mean rest and comfort and a good night's sleep. But it isn't so for everyone; and there are many dangerous things that may take place in a bed.”

“If we were all on trial for our thoughts, we would all be hanged.”

“A prison does not only lock its inmates inside, it keeps all others out. Her strongest prison is of her own construction.”

A good read but The Handmaid’s Tale and it’s sequel will always be my favourite novels from the author.

This is up there with my favourite books ever. Was gripped from the first page to the last. So detailed but you come away still puzzled. READ THIS.
