Fledgling by Octavia E. Butler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a different take on a vampire story. I listened to the Audio from my Library Overdrive system. There was nothing scary about the main character. There were some of her kind that were, but the author didn’t stay with them. This story goes with the main character who is a young vampire who has lost her memory.
I finished this audio a couple of days ago. I can’t remember the MCs name. I did like her and rooted for her. I liked her humans, too. But towards the end, I didn’t like it so much. The court scenes were kind of boring. And the worst part was that I wanted to see more of what happened after. I felt the story ended abruptly.
Still, I think I will remember the feelings this story gave me. For that, I upped my rating from three and a half to four stars.
I did like the writing, too. It’s worth the read.
