Parable of the Talents by Octavia E. Butler
4.5

Incredibly well written but very brutal read.

Butler is prophetic and this sequel delve into deeper traumas of the not so distant dystopian world of the earthseed series. Lauren is a phenomenal main character however this book was a lot for me to stomach. I wished there had been more moments of brevity spread within the pages like the first book but also I feel butler’s strength is that she writes the way it needs to be told
