This was a masterpiece. It's not like "[b:The Handmaid's Tale|38447|The Handmaid's Tale|Margaret Atwood|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1498057733s/38447.jpg|1119185]", which was also amazing. "Cat's Eye" is a different kind of story. It's sort of a coming of age story, but much more layered. It showed us how the events of our childhood influence our adult life in terms of traumas, anxieties, thoughts, relationships with people, our jobs and life in general. I can't wait to read more books by Atwood. ( )

I finally finished this book the second time I picked it up. The writing duke was immersive and I thought the themes of loneliness and gender were interesting, but it was ultimately difficult for me to connect with the book ( )

This book, like Atwood's other work, is beautifully written. I was captivated by the expert language and fascinating images in a relatable character. Atwood manages to close the psychic distance between reacher and character and the experience stays with you. I feel as though there is more to this story and without deep thinking, I will only ever see the tip of the iceberg. ( )

Ich hatte mehr von diesem Buch erwartet. Zudem ist der Klappentext irreführend. ( )

I don’t really write reviews but this book made me feel something. A variety of emotions. As though I had experienced all that Elaine experienced. Atwood is a master of her craft. ( )
