![]() ![]() ![]() It took me a while to get through the first half. Perhaps it is because I am so much older now… Or perhaps it is because the talk of the pandemic and devastation is hitting a little too close to home right now… Whatever the reason, I did not enjoy this one quite as much as a lot of others seemed to.Īlthough her writing is eloquent and beautifully fluid, I just found a lot of it dull. But there was just something that didn’t capture me like the handmaids tale did all those years ago. ![]() If I said I didn’t enjoy this book I would be lying. Switching back in time and forward to the devastation, Snowman recounts his tale of life and his part in the end of humanity. Now he is left with the People of Crake, a genetically engineered species of humans and all that is left of a remnant of humanity. Snowman (AKA Jimmy) seems to be the last surviving human after a plague wiped out the majority of civilisation. Anyway, if all those years have taught us nothing more about this author, can I just ask: WHAT THE HELL GOES ON INSIDE HER HEAD!!? Okay, so I have only read one other Margaret Atwood novel and that was the Handmaids Tale, years before it became hyped up with the TV show. ![]()
