I read Handmaid's Tale when it came out, so decades later, I figure it can stand a re-read. I have zero interest in reading YA for a book club discussion. I've said so before. According to the publisher, it's at a fourth grade reading level. Give me a break, honestly. I like kidlit when it comes with a kid. Not for a group of adults.

When I sussed the field, there were two yeses and four nos; I went the extra mile to read a few pages of the maybes before I made up my mind. Of the three, I found Those Who Haunt the Night to be quite readable and intriguing AND I could get it from OverDrive. I found things of sufficient irritation in the other two that I decided to give them a miss.
