We Are Reading Kindred by Octavia Butler!

Hi Everyone:

Please RSVP by Thursday, 2.19.26, 6:00pm.

You can find really great details on the book on Amazon or Goodreads. Please message me if you have any questions. Happy reading...I will be in touch again soon.

We will initially meet at Twisted Soul Cookhouse & Pours to discuss the book and then for those who are interested go over to the Center for Civil and Human Rights located at 100 Ivan Allen Jr. Blvd.
Atlanta GA 30313. Website link: https://www.civilandhumanrights.org/

This book choice is in recognition of Black History Month. Octavia Estelle Butler was an award-winning African American author and a pioneer of speculative fiction. She was the first Black woman to achieve national recognition in science fiction. Butler's work is known for its strong female protagonists, lean prose, and social commentary that explores themes of race, gender, sexuality, politics, religion, and the environment.

Want to know more about Kindred...if you don't already know...here's a link of the trailer: https://youtu.be/grco3eoAA30?si=RzjbiGzFTBXSj7D8. There was a short series adaptation made of the book in 2022, but there are tons of summary, reviews, and analyses of the book that can be found online. Happy Reading!

Best,

Jaye.
