For some reason I find it apropos to watch an episode of The Handmaid's Tale on the eve of a critical US election.
@catfoodcasserole I read the book and was stoked when I found out Atwood was an advisor on the series. However, I don't consider the 2nd season on to be true to the book. The handmaid in the book was unknown to the historians that found her diary. June would have become a legend.

I've heard they changed a lot, like active protests which were just far off in the book.
