Ink
by Amanda Sun
INK is an enjoyable book. I liked the use of Japanese mythology, which I haven't seen used in books often. The main character was like-able enough, but the "I'm bad for you, stay away" love interest trope isn't anything new but I thought it was nicely done. I disliked the overuse of Japanese words. I found it unnecessary to replace words in what seemed like every other sentence with ones in Japanese. I don't know Japanese and sometimes I couldn't use context clues so I had to go to the glossary in the back of the book, which I found annoying, or go on not knowing what was said, which I found even more annoying. That was my main complaint but otherwise the story is pretty good.
