Emma Watson is hiding copies of The Handmaid’s Tale around Paris
Bookworms unite!
Emma Watson is at it again and this time she's been busy hiding copies of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale in mystery locations around Paris.
The distopian novel has experienced somewhat of a resurgence in recent times thanks to its critically acclaimed TV adaptation, starring Elisabeth Moss, so it makes sense that Emma, an avid reader and women's rights advocate, would want to spread the book's feminist message.
The title also just so happens to be this month's selection in the actor's online book club, Our Shared Shelf.
