A review by emilybolivia
Kindred by Octavia E. Butler

4.5

Every time I finished Butler book for the first time I mourn how few remain. I’ve read Earthseed and Patternist series and this one was also so different. I can’t believe her range! It was fascinating and heart-breaking. Normally I hate all time-travel attempts but this one worked for me. It was simple and took a back seat to the actual story. Almost more magical realism than fantasy.
