The Rose That Grew from Concrete

by Tupac Shakur

A soulful, misunderstood legend. I hesitate to give this 5 stars because of his highly simple writing style. Many of his core messages do stick with me, though, and his thoughts are so clearly conveyed and powerful. Thank you, 2pac.

The Emissary

by Yōko Tawada

squeezed this in for june reads in the last 2.5 hours on june 30! this is such a contrasting read; small B-grade moments in life plastered over a bleak, desolate setting. it's like a blend between slice of life and post-apocalyptic.
