A review by lenorayoder
Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan

2.0

It was an easy read, but it just felt so generic. Nothing about the setting or characters really drew me in, and there’s a big chunk of the book where barely anything happens. A lot of stuff threatens to happen, and the main character is afraid of stuff happening, but not much actually does. Or, I should say not much happens to the main character - everyone else seems to be living in a more interesting book that we don't get to read. 

I also didn’t really believe the love between the main character and her love interest. Probably because neither felt like enough of a real person to me, and there were so many time skips. We're told their relationship and feelings develop, but we're rarely shown. 

Just very meh, won’t be reading the next book.
