adventurous dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes

  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I’m convinced that Octavia Butler went back in time. Such a timely read in 2025. Wish I had read this earlier. Hoping to read all of Butler’s canon!!
