"Final Thoughts"

Overall, I really enjoyed the book. Although it was not an easy read, it was definitely worth while. I stuck with the book and finished it through the end. I liked the book because it explored the roles of women and showed  society where women were looked at solely on their ability to reproduce. I found it challenging to understand certain aspects of the novel because the actual message was so much deeper than what was on the surface.  The message overall, in my opinion, was women and their self worth compared to the societal worth of females. The way a female should see themselves is as a beautiful woman that can reproduce and provide more beauty and purity to the world by bringing a new life into the world. The way the society in the story depicts a woman’s value is solely based on the fact they can reproduce. The men do not think twice about the sacrifices women make to bring a new life into the world or how difficult it is to actually be pregnant. I really enjoyed the message and
