I was forced to read 'The Handmaids Tale' By Margret Atwood for my English lit class, I have since fallen in love with this book so much so that I refused to return it!!! xd Trust me read it, it shows the what ifs in our future!!!

I read handmaid's tale also, and enjoyed it greatly.
A book I'd recommend would be "Fast Girls" by Emily White. It talks about the myth of the slut, I found it very easy to read, and very interesting.

lately i've been getting into old literature. i recently finished wuthering heights, am currently reading les miserables, and am planning on reading candide next. sometime i'm planning on reading the declaration of the rights of women and the citizeness by olympe de gouges. it was written during the french revolution (which we're currently studying in social studies) by a women's rights activist who found it unfair that the declaration of the rights of man extended the rights of the citizen only to men.

Well, you've probably read this, and if you have't I certainly suggest it: the second sex, by simone de beauvoir is really great.
I'm currently read The Thanatanautes - voyageurs of death - well, that's how I'm translating it, I'm reading it in French. The author, Bernard Werber is great.
