Adulthood Rites by Octavia E. Butler

5.0

---

This book was a good followup to the first book of the series, Dawn. It continues to tackle the sociological complexities of a colonial situation in a science fiction setting. I took a huge break from this series after reading the first book because it was so difficult to stomach the way Lilith and the others were treated. I found this book a little lighter, or at least less dark and grim.
