Reading Parable of the Sower ATM. Seemed appropriate under the circumstances. One of those books that escaped my attention for years but also one I can tell halfway through that I’ll reread immediately upon completion.
In the intro to the edition I’m reading, LeVar Burton called POTS his gateway drug to the rest of her writings, and I now understand why. I have the sequel, then i want to read her short stories. She writes with such clarity, deceptive simplicity. That takes true skill and craftsmanship.
I'm so happy that once again, social media (I first heard of her 20 years ago via a messageboard,) is making her books popular. It's so wonderful to see. ❤️
Im reading her volume from the Library of America now ✨ I adore her storytelling, and have decided that Fledgling is my favorite vampire story of all time.
I love her so much. My favorite of her is the Xenogenesis series and her short stories, especially Bloodchild 😱. Rereading the Parable duology now, yiiiiikes
