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

funny sad tense

3.0

It's so important to talk about consent and sexual assault, and this book discussed the heavy topics in a very honest way. The book manages to be critical while maintaining accessibility. The characters, plot, and especially writing, are a bit too simple for my liking, but I still think it's a solid book. An intriguing contrast is seen between the romance and the humour. Both, in order for me to enjoy, rely on timing and delivery. While the romance felt oddly paced and without enough substance, the few jokes often made me smile even in public.
