Girls of Paper and Fire – Every year, eight girls are brought to serve the king and these girls are known as the paper girls. But Lei is the first ever nineth, and she is a girl of fire. When Lei was a girl, her mother was snatched by the castle and they came back for her, as her golden eyes piqued the interest of the king, as only monsters can have golden eyes, yet she is human. While learning how to serve the king in all sorts of ways, Lei falls in love with another Paper girl, a forbidden love in more ways than one.

Heaven’s Official Blessing – Crown prince of Heaven, Xie Lian is famous for his beauty, strength, and purity. After being banished from the Heaven’s once more, eight hundred years after his mortal life, Xie Lian has ascended to Godhood a third time, angering many. He is sent to the mortal realm to hunt demons and spirits, where he meets Hua Cheng and falls in love, without fully knowing him.

This series is so good!!! I was absolutely hooked and I devoured the whole series over three days.

Female rage, sapphics with swords, revenge and romance and friendship and love in all its complexities. What more could you want from a series?

Lei is such a headstrong, sweet, compassionate, fierce character. She’s so flawed, she makes so many mistakes, she often leads with her heart and not her head, and it’s absolutely impossible not to root for her. Everything she goes through only makes her stronger and the fact that the King can’t understand that is really his ultimate undoing.

I adored Wren as a love interest. She’s so flawed, shaped by her father and the role he’s prepared her to play. She does some truly awful things because they’re what he expects of her, but you can’t help but forgive her and love her anyway. Just like Lei. And getting Wren’s POV in the third book made me love her even more.

This book honestly has so many incredible characters that worm their way into your heart. We lose a few of those gems along the way and they absolutely broke my heart. These characters made me laugh and cry and roll my eyes. Bo, Lova, Chenna, Zhin, Zhen, Blue, Aoki, Lill, Merrin, Nitta…all of them were so varied and were given so much depth and I loved every moment spent with them.

Nitta being the kind of asexual who loves flirting and sex jokes but doesn’t actually want sex made me grin like a fool. Me! That’s me! I knew Nitta was my fave for a reason!

This series tackles some pretty heavy topics and I definitely recommend you check out the trigger warnings first.

But I seriously can’t recommend it enough. Go read it! Now!

Femslash February Day 9: Lei & Wren

“Instead of disappearing, she makes me feel reappeared. Reimagined. Her touch shapes me, draws out the boldness that had been hiding in my core.”
