Fledgling by Octavia E. Butler

challenging dark mysterious reflective slow-paced

3.0

Such a challenging book to read. It made me extremely uncomfortable at times, but I believe that was Butler’s intentions.

I loved Butler’s take on vampires and wish we could have gotten more stories in this world. The lore was so interesting and unique! I also enjoyed the parallels to real life and social commentary on different issues.

Definitely not a story for everyone, but I enjoyed it and am glad I read it!
