Before these girls could come to their senses, they would be married off to Talibani fighters. Just makes my heart so heavy !!

In the book they're not even supposed to acknowledge that they can read.
I just finished reading it the other day, but have never seen the show. I really liked the book though.
7 u/Wiggl3sFirstMate 28d ago I’ll have to read it because I have it sitting in the house I just haven’t gotten round to it yet. But sounds interesting. 5 u/manwathiel_undomiel2 28d ago Book is a million times better than the show imo. The show is very tailored to our modern era, but the book will stand for generations to come. 4 u/Suchafatfatcat 28d ago If you enjoyed The Handmaid’s Tale, I highly recommend one of her other books- The Blind Assassin.
