EXTREMely satisfying read. Some elements were fairly predictable, others were quite twisty! Overall, a very well-written novel in my opinion. I can't wait to see what else Alex Michaelides writes in the future!

Wow. This has prompted me to read more classic literature. I especially like Atwood's own afterword at the end, as she states that everything in the book is from stuff that had already happened in some form or another, as well as there not being any sort of addition of strange gizmos.
I knew what happened in this book. I didn't know exactly how or when or why, but I knew death strikes a couple of characters.
This book is perfect. You get attached to the characters. It's beautifully written and you are exposed to the determination between a boy and his dogs. It's really a great book. I cried. A lot. The last pages were full of tears. When trying to talk to my mom about a completely different subject, it was all I could do to form coherent sentences. I love this book.
