A review by slowpoke
Fledgling by Octavia E. Butler

3.0

Yeah pseudo-pedophelia isn’t my thing esp when there was literally 0 reason for it lol the big points of the story could have been made without her describing adults having sex with a child’s body.

The overall story was interesting and compelling but narrative was simple and direct. I liked the moral and and racism topics tackled but the story didn’t feel complete. I wonder if Butler meant to write a sequel but couldn’t due to her passing.
