A review by prettypious
Fledgling by Octavia E. Butler

5.0

Reading this book I see Butler’s influence on some of the younger Black fantasy writers popular today. This was a really good book the only thing I didn’t like is that the protagonist looks like a 10 year old even though she 53 and no one had a problem with having sexual interactions with her and that made me kinda uncomfortable reading all the intimate and sex scenes knowing she looks like a 10 year old child but I’m sure a more mature reader won’t have these problems. I highly recommend the book especially if you like Octavia Butler, fantasy with Black characters, vampire books, and classic revenge stories.
