A review by solarpunkopossum
Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler

Did not finish book. Stopped at 35%.

I liked this book a lot! But it’s very dark. Extremely dark. Bad things happen a lot. It’s a valuable commentary on our present state, and I would like to come back to this. But right now my mental health isn’t in the place to finish this book.
