OCtavia Butler 6/2 Kindred

Dana is the protagoinst who travels back and forth through time to save her ancestor so she could exist. the story starts off really wierd and and i kept waiting for her to wake up from her dream but i slowly realized that the entire story would be like that and i slowly started to appreciate the work and enjoy it. her husband in th present is really supportive although he is white and it really funny that in the past they know she is different but they cant figure out whats off about her. it was a very enjoyable reading for me. I especially liked the themes of love, survival, race, and evolution trhough time. it made it much mor enjoyable for me to read
