Hana yori dango. Dumplings over flowers. It basically means that someone should value needs over wants, substance over appearance. As in, make sure you have food and shelter before you burn money on something extravagant. And, you know, choose genuine friends who will be there for you over pretty, shallow ones. Don't get carried away by beauty if it leaves you empty.

INK by Amanda Sun is the second book on my #currentlyreading list! Again, I’m only about seven chapters in—but every time I pick this up, I feel like I’m either in a J-Drama or anime, or I really want to watch one. 📚📚

•What is it about?•

📖📖📖📖📖

On the heels of a family tragedy, the last thing Katie Greene wants to do is move halfway across the world. Stuck with her aunt in Shizuoka, Japan, Katie feels lost. Alone. She doesn’t know the language, she can barely hold a pair of chopsticks, and she can’t seem to get the hang of taking her shoes off whenever she enters a building.

Then there’s gorgeous but aloof Tomohiro, star of the school’s kendo team. How did he really get the scar on his arm? Katie isn’t prepared for the answer. But when she sees the things he draws start moving, there’s no denying the truth: Tomo has a connection to the ancient gods of Japan, and being near Katie is causing his abilities to spiral out of control. If the wrong people notice, they'll both be targets.

Katie never wanted to move to Japan—now she may not make it out of the country alive.

Есть в Японии высказывание, связанное с любованием сакурой – 花より団子 «Хана Йори Данго». «Лучше данго чем цветы». Используется для описания человека, который делает что-либо не для высоких целей, а ради денег, еды, плотских утех.

Поэтому нужно ценить нужды больше, чем желания, сущность больше внешности. И, знаете, нужно выбирать настоящих друзей, что будут с тобой, а не с кем-то красивым. Не стоит думать только о красоте, если она делает тебя пустым.🌸🍡

They tell you you’ll forget how it used to be. You’ll get used to it, that it’s better to move on. They don’t realize you can’t. You’re not the same person anymore.
