Rise

(Paper Gods #2.5)

By Amanda Sun

Synopsis:

A long, long time ago, before the world was as we know it, Izanami and Izanagi came into being. Two of the first of the ancient gods of Japan, they crafted the world from ink and their own imaginations. Izanagi wants, more than anything, to be with Izanami—but one moment of pride could tear them apart forever.

Yuki and Tanaka have been friends for as long as they can remember, but lately deeper feelings have been bubbling beneath the surface. How do they navigate the transition from friendship to true love without destroying the powerful bond between them?

Set a millennia apart, can these two couples, living parallel love stories, find their happily-ever-afters?

My review:

4/5

So I was lost.. I did not realize this was #2.5. 

Anyway I still found this to be a good story. I loved the story about the two ancient Japanese gods Izanami and Izanagi. I haven’t read any Japanese mythology and I found this to be awesome. The story between Yuki and Tanaka has caught my attention and I’m excited to pick up the first book in this series. I hope it lives up to my expectations

It was quick, intriguing and kept me turning the pages.
