Not necessarily a review but...

One of the reasons I didn’t like the Handmaid’s Tale - beside the lack of plot or character personality (no matter how intentional) was the fact that I thought the entire premise was unrealistic. 

How could society revert so far back that women were back to being treated like dirt and forced to give birth to children from abusive men? The gays and pocs being discarded and killed? Children treated like possessions rather than actual human beings?

But now I look at America and the laws being implemented and the fact that Disney is doing that shit, and I think

Holy Shit. Margaret Atwood was correct.

my correct opinion on hoo is: 

the CONCEPT? 10/10. fascinating.

deep seated roman/greek rivalry? incredible. i’m obsessed.

wiping receptive leaders memories and switching camps because they have to learn to work together? excellent. i eat up the amnesia trope everytime.

diversifying our lead characters races and sexualities? wonderful. i love the bare minimum.

but ACTUAL hoo? dont get me started. so many problems so little time.

a fic: has a fun title, tags look good, ratings are all in my vibe area me: ooohhhh the summary: i’m so bad at summaries but i promise it’ll be good!!! :D  me: dammit

. . . 

as a writer myself, i understand fully that writing can be hard, and summaries are the bane of my existence. but!!! you can just take a fun line from your fic! maybe it’s your favorite, maybe it’s really funny, maybe it’s really sad, whatever. take that sentence or two or three and smack them in that lil summary place on AO3. BOOM. a summary that makes me want to read your fic, not rip my eyeballs out. 

you’ve totally got this. write beautiful things and don’t let summaries slow you down, you fantastic humans. 

(if you need help making a summary, hit me up!! i know this post makes me seem like a bitchy son of a gun, but i promise i am actually very nice and totally willing to help you out!! i would hate for a beautiful, well-written fic to not get the recognition it deserves because of something as simple (and tricky) as a summary)

It's not my fault that my email is filled with "we're having a sale on books!"

Book collector problems.
