Reading fills me with a sense of peace and accomplishment. I have tons of academic material to read. Which means my time to read "books chosen by Diana" is scarce. The Fifth Season by N.K Jemisin It's a profound book that paints a fantastic world. The Fifth Season is a very hard book to describe in it's entirety it contradicts itself its set in a continent called the Stillness that never stops moving. Some of it's habitants are called 'orogenes', who are able to manipulate the earth under their feet from an unknown power. Another contradiction here; orogenes are both discriminated against and the only reasons for life's survival. In a nutshell this books covered everything from the awful state of earth to racism. "For all those who have to fight for the respect that everyone else is given without question" Spoiler alert! this book is written in first person you read through the eyes of Damaya, Syenite and Essun. Damaya was you
