Book Club: The Testaments Part I

Published: Sept. 20, 2019, 9:01 a.m.

Our reading of Margaret Atwood\u2019s The Testaments has commenced!

This week, we\u2019re talking about book chapters 1 through 23. So \u2026 spoilers abound.

Join Nerdette host Greta Johnsen, New York Magazine\u2019s Heather Havrilesky and Vocalo\u2019s Jill Hopkins as they contemplate the motives of Aunt Lydia, wonder what\u2019s in that darn safe and talk smack about the mean girls of Gilead.

To follow along with us, read The Testaments through chapter 46 (pages 124-282) before next Friday, September 27.
