  • Captivating, but left me hanging at the end

    I loved this book! It contained so many vocabulary gems, historical references, and suspenseful moments that often prompted outbursts of support and disparagement for many of the characters. While engaging, the book left me hanging at the end as the final chapter concluded abruptly, a choice I’m assuming Ms. Butler intended, and transitioned to a prologue of events that I’m struggling to comprehend without a bridge. So here I am with a mound of questions that I won’t disclose to avoid further spoiling the book, and cliffhanger discomfort that I have yet to assuage within novel realms of social media. In sum, the novel is def worth the read and I guess it did its job if it left me wanting more in the end lol.
  • Captivating yet frustrating read.

    It took me a while to finish this book. (About a year) mostly because I would get so angry with the event of the book and have to put it down, calm myself and then return. But I enjoyed it over all.
  • Amazing!!!

    What I didn’t like was the false advertising by other people saying Dana started to accept slavery, which she did not she just accepted her circumstances that she would be treated as one. She did not accept slavery itself. I loved the book though, the portraying of the relationship between house slaves and field slaves. The portraying of the stereotype called “The Mammy”. I also loved how the author portrayed how easily you become the time era you’re raised in. Rufus was not born racist, and I found the little boy hilarious in the beginning chapters and it was a journey to see him become just like his father in the end. The author portrayed so many dynamics of this time perfectly, and the fact that the center relationship was interracial and didn’t take a racist turn like expected was the cherry on top. 5/5
  • Sci-Fi or documentary?

    Somewhat short of what I expected in style ala Toni Morrison, Kindred makes up for in historical narrative, unexplained teleportation, and page-turning intrigue.

    Was about to watch the series on Hulu but remembered this was a book first. Decided to read the book and so glad I did. I couldn’t put it down and had me full of emotions.
