"The daughter of a samurai never weeps. But Takiko, whose warrior father has been killed in the civil wars between the Heike and Genji clans, finds this a hard rule, for she resents and even fears her mother’s new husband. How can she accept this strange and ugly man, Goro the potter, as her father? When she is offered an exciting position at the Japanese court, her problems seem to have been solved. Her beauty and musical talent win her many admirers, among them the dashing young warrior—and enemy spy—Hideo.

As the war between the clans again erupts, Takiko flees the endangered capital along with the royal household, the child Emperor, and the precious Imperial treasures. The courage of all the exiles is tested in several momentous sea battles. In this dramatic setting Takiko must face the painful conflict between loyalty and her secret love for Hideo. The climax of the war and the resolution of Takiko’s own personal dilemma are unforgettably described."

While reading this book, I wasn't really focused on it due to it not really attracting me. When I read it, it takes some time to fully understand what is being read. However the thing I liked about the book is that the characters were somewhat relatable, which made it a little interesting. If you're not into historical fictions then I think that this book is not something that will interest you. I think if I get an analysis about each part of the book it would be helpful for me to fully understand what's going on. As I read the book I find some characteristics in the character that I also have. The problems are way different due to it being long ago. The actions of the character does remind me of the movies I watch about the Asian culture, which made it easy to imagine the setting.

I believe there is a certain group of people that we actually like this kind of book. If you are really into historical fictions, then this will be a great book to read. However if you are anything outside that group I think this book with no get your full attention. In the beginning of the book it's not that interesting so you might just give up on it. This book might be good for you if you find it relatable to you or someone you know.

"Goro praised her extravagantly. But it annoyed her that he did so."(pg 35)
I liked this quote because I kind of understand what the main character feels. I hate when someone thinks highly of me all the time because I then feel, as though, I 'll let them down.

"To comfort herself a little, she would practice on the koto.." (pg 30)
Whenever I get gloomy I would like to practice my listening skills by listening to music and isolating my mind.

"It was a task that took almost all her time and energy..."(pg 33)
This is how I feel about all the benchmarks I've dealt with since attending Science Leadership Academy.

This song fits into the main character's feelings. When I read the book I notice repetition within the pages. Music plays a big part in her life and this song explain how music feel to her. It also talks about the death of the singer's father, which is something that Takiko has faced in her life. Music plays a big role in her life and it helps her through her sad and gloomy days. I felt as though this song spoke to Takiko because it share a lot of her feelings about certain thing an how music helped her through it.
