Kindred

4.2/5 stars

One of the few things that ruins a book for me is having to read it in class. Usually, when this happens, I end up hating the book because I am forced to read at the pace that the teacher has us read in class. Putting that aside, Kindred is still a great book to read. Time traveling can be confusing at times, but overall we see the author develop these characters well enough to be able to sympathize with even the worst characters in the series. I really liked the ending as well, because it wasn't what I expected. I had expected them to return to the future and stay there, but the reason why this happened was surprising.

I hadn't expected her to burn everything down and for Dana to kill Rufus. Throughout the book, we see Dana feel sympathy for Rufus and try to get him to be a better person, but she fails. We not only see her go back to the future, but we see that she holds no remorse over killing Rufus. 

Although it was a good book because of how I was introduced to it, it'll take a while before I pick this book up again.
