Conversations with Octavia Butler | 
@broughtyoubooks This is the one - I got a paperback version for about $40 CAD a bunch of years ago.
If you read too many at once it ruins the impact, so I found reading one interview every week or two was perfect for me to spread it out and fully digest each one.
Found this awesome picture of Octavia Butler in Joshua Tree circa 1984
How did this not make news headlines! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

July brings us Mary Roach, some very informative nonfiction.
If you haven‘t seen it, today‘s Google doodle (U.S.) honors award-winning sci-fi author Octavia E. Butler - one of the first female sci-fi authors and the first sci-fi author to receive a MacArthur Fellowship.

If you‘ve been thinking about picking up some Octavia Butler, today‘s the day....a bunch of her books and series are part of today‘s kindle sale on amazon!
In the last 2 years there has been a newly published edition of Parables is Sower/Talents. Last years are on the right side, this years on the left. As a birthday 🎁 I to myself I am getting them just not sure which ones.My instinct is to buy the ones on the right (aren‘t they stunning) but it seems weird that they redid the covers so quickly and I want to know if anything else is redone. Which should I get?
Can't think of a better #seasonsreadings2016 ... this was just from one bookcase in one room! I didn't even go to the other 5 spots to look because the thought of reshelving dozens of books was too much. #weneeddiversebooks #lovemyOctavia #onlyoneofmanyToniMorrison #forgotTheRoundHouse #soooooomanymorebooks

Great book of interviews with one of our most iconic writers.
