Have you ever read a book that you weren't really sure if you liked, but it kept you interested enough that you had to keep reading? Nomansland by Lesley Hauge was like that for me. This dystopian novel has an interesting premise of a future land populated only by girls and women and who are indoctrinated through strict rules and rites to reject the lifestyles lived by those in the Before.

I know that MHS students read Herland in Advanced American Lit, and am curious how the ideas raised in this novel would compare.

Ultimately, my rating on this book was that it was a quick read for mature readers. The ending seems to leave room for a sequel.
