definitely agree. to me she is a thinker who uses her voice and her lyrics like others write essays.
i really would like to know what she reads (except for the Bible)

it's not everyday you see the photograpf of a (female) "celebrity" holding books.
if only younger generations took notice. with internet and social media, kids of today regard books as boring useless objects

@hi: Is there any info on where the picture was taken? maryseo: I would like to know what's on her personal reading list as well. I know she was a history major when she was at Columbia. |

ladona : according to talib kweli's "ms Hill" song, she likes Octavia Butler's books. and i remember an old interview when she referred a book on the cleansing of the body. anyway based on her lyrics you can tell that she's an avid reader. you cannot write that well if you don't read.

I think the rap is about her mother liking Octavia Butler books and that Lauryn may actually be named for the main character of Parable of the Sower. Octavia Butler's a great author btw you should check her out. Parable of the Sower is very interesting almost about today's problems. |

I have been meaning to read Parable of the Sower for a while but I am not really into sci fi books. But I'll give it a try, she was an interesting character. |
