It's a story that will stay with me too, Justin!

I thought that, too, Salma. It's almost unbelievable to think the story is 43 years old. It's almost entirely stood the test of time.


Amber YES!!! I'm so glad you agree! One of my favourite books of all time and Octavia Butler is my favourite author.

Pat Ah yes, this is also one of my all time favourites!


Andy Marr I'm so glad you loved this, too, Amber! I wonder if you could recommend the next Octavia Butler novel to add to my reading list? 🧐


Andy Marr Pam, I'm delighted to hear it. I can't believe I'd never heard of this book until earlier this year!


#AskMissPatience Andy, recommend Parable of the Sower then Parable of the Talents as a pair in sequence
