March 11 - Kindred By Octavia E. Butler

       Dana finds herself in 1815, which is definitely not normal. She saves a young boy from drowning, then goes back to 1976. She was in 1815 for at least a few minutes, but only away from her time for 10-15 seconds. How strange. And then it happens again.

       This was week two of Kindred, and the ending was definitely unexpected. I don't want to give anything away, but Dana does something that she has been contemplating, though you would never think she would actually do. Kindred is filled with action and suspense, and is amazingly written. I would definitely recommend it for people in middle school or older who like historic fiction and sic fi.
