Rebel Skies by Ann Sei Lin

4.0

A fabulous fantasy debut from Ann Sei Lin. At first I was sceptical about the efficacy of paper magic, but this had me fully persuaded by the end. This felt very Studio Ghibli, with a warmth to it that felt comforting even when there was peril or a character did something notably villainous. I would say that the title doesn't feel like it reflects the content very well, however, and that this definitely errs on the Middle Grade end rather than being strictly YA. Also - love, love, LOVE Akane.
