A review by finallyfinnian
Kindred by Octavia E. Butler

4.0

I loved so much about this book. And I love Octavia Butler in general. I found this book readable and tough. The descriptions of slavery, the strange connection between Dana and her ancestor, the "we don't know why" time-travel. It was all good. It was interesting. I just didn't care enough about the characters - I didn't *feel* as much as I wanted to feel. Overall, I recommend the book as a good read, but I wish I had felt more for Dana.
