A review by samsbookworld
Bloodchild by Octavia E. Butler

dark emotional tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

5.0

How does one manage to express so much within so few words? Well, Octavia E. Butler certainly managed it. 

From page 1 I found myself immersed in the story, absolutely drowning in this rich world of gruesome horror. This was so gross but in the best way possible! I just couldn't stop reading. It's like a car crash, I just had to watch. 

Thought-provoking and the kind of book that will get under your skin (literally!)
