Bloodchild and Other Stories by Octavia E. Butler
5.0
challenging dark tense fast-paced

I thoroughly enjoyed the stories I read of this book. I only planned to read Bloodchild, which was creepy, imaginative, and sad. Desperation for survival on all fronts. I did also read The Evening and the Morning and the Night. Interesting disease and also the control of it. The main characters seemed almost high schoolish in the beginning. Overall, great stories. I am sure there are more good ones in the book, but not reading them at the time
