man. first time reading octavia butler and her writing is so engaging, i was invested immediately.
this is an extremely emotional tale of abuse that won't be for everyone. also i dont know how i feel about some of the gender things that are put forward. however butler is veryy smart in the way she deals with complex politics. Im definitely going to read the rest of the books in this series!
