I love her and the only Manga I haven't read by her is Nana, being on hiatus I never got into it although I own the first 4 volumes. Do you think it's worth reading even though it's not finished? I mean I'm sure I'd love it but idk if it would be a bummer to not be able to finish it

I think it’s absolutely worth it. 

I feel like, even if unfinished, NANA is where she got to develop so many of the things she had hinted in other series and create something a lot more complex. I actually would like to re-read it now, having grown up and knowing more about myself and the world than I did when I read it first. It’s a bummer that it’s unfinished and I wish it had its proper ending, maybe one day it will, who knows, but I think that what’s there is worth the uncertainty. 

Hi! :D Thanks for sending these! ♥

Bootes- If you could have any animal, wild or not, fake or not, which would you want?

Dragons. Dragon companions. Less like Daenerys more like Elliott and Pete

Libra- If you could talk to your past self, what would you tell yourself?

Oh boy. One of the best scenes in television history is that bit from My Mad Fat Diary where Rae talks to her past self, it made me cry so hard and I felt it very deeply. I think my conversation would probably be very similar. Basically: you’re enough. 

I’ll leave the clip of that bit too because why not, it’s great.

Yo también estoy muy cansada de ver titulares de artículos del tipo por qué no se le han de poner películas de princesas Disney a las niñas hoy en día...

en una época había un video de una nena hablando mal de las princesas que estaba claramente planificado por sus padres, que se hizo viral, y me ponía de la cabeza...que haya espacio para crecimiento no quita el avance del medio ni las cosas que cada princesa aportó en su momento...

I'd love to see it!

Wow very beautiful!!!

Hi Karin! Hope you’re well ♥

3: First book that had a major influence on youAs in “book” specifically, probably Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, that one I read the most as a kid, once I remember I read it like 10 times in a row. I learned to read when I was 3 with “Había una vez una princesa” by Graciela Montes, so that one’s important, but my biggest literary influence was probably María Elena Walsh and her songs and poems, they weren’t compiled in book-form, though. 

5: Favorite series and whyPeople is probably tired as hell of me saying this but His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman. I could list you the reasons why it’s great (someone already did a pretty good one here) but I’m just gonna say: to me a good book is the one that, when you’re done, makes you feel something that it was intending you to feel; but a great book is the one that, when you close it, when you’re done, it has changed you, not how you feel but who you are, the way you think, the way you see the world or the way you see yourself. Those books are the ones which hold true power, because they never leave you, they become part of you, not because of the stories they told or the characters they showed you, but because they gave you something else, a new configuration of the world. To me, that’s HDM. 

25: A book that you think about and you cringe because of how terrible it wasAs of late, Fairest by Marissa Meyer. I’m covering part of why in my first Disney characters comparative essay series, once I finish it and upload it, if you want to know more about it. 

What’s important is that you can feel at ease and confident with what you wear and how you look. If you can’t find an idea and this issue makes you feel more bad than good, maybe do it another time? Good luck, I think you’re gorgeous in any way :)
