Discussion: Based on our above ratings, I think its very clear on how we felt about this book! Unfortunately, it didn't move, excite, or "wow" any members in the club. We consistently felt the book was depressing, and we were all happy to finish and put it behind.

| Sherry, BCDP Winner! |
BCDP: Congratulations to Sherry, our BCDP winner! She got to take home some fancy soap, and a Scrabble game. The Commander and Offred always played Scrabble. What a great way to "theme" Barbara!
Recommendation: As you may have guessed, our book club does not recommend The Handsmaid's Tale. On a good note, we got the pleasure of dining at a cute, quiet cafe in Orland Park -- The Blissful Banana. We all enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and the banana smoothie sample. So, instead of hitting your library for The Handsmaid's Tale, we suggest visiting The Blissful Banana Cafe. You won't regret!
