The Paper Magician by Charlie N. Holmberg
5.0
This book follows Ceony Twill. She went to Tagis Praff School for magicians. She completed her schooling in a year instead of the usual 2 years. She got a scholarship from an anonymous donor who turned out to be Magician Thane who she was assigned to. She wanted to be a smolter but with the folder or paper magician shortage she had no choice in the matter.
So, she goes to Magician Thane's cottage outside of London. She is not at all thrilled about this nor does she want to be a paper magician. But after some time she begins to like paper. Magician Thane makes her a paper dog whom she named Fennel. He acts just like a real dog would.
Then one day Lira shows up. She is the ex wife of Emery. She became an excisioner. Someone that does dark magic with flesh. She flings Ceony aside and pins Emery against the wall of the kitchen. She then proceeds to rip his heart out and leaves. Ceony hurries and makes a paper heart for him. Which is said to maybe last a few days at best. Ceony sits out to find this woman and bring back the heart of the man whom shes falling for unexpectedly. She only has paper magic on her side since once you bond with a material that bond is for life.
This book is a really good read. It has a good plot line and builds characters easily. I almost get a Harry Potter feel. But with this one anyone can be a magician. She can make an origami bird and say breathe and it animates. But this only occurs after the bonding ceremony.
