Paper Planes by Jennie Wood

4.0

for some reason listening to this cozy fantasy instrumental playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/61ePVjb032Ztvd8qOnN2tt?si=bjlInjNTSD-hW5XGTpNbJQ&pi=u-3tsb7h6AR_GX really enhanced this reading experience even though this isn’t fantasy. huh.
anyway i loved this one a Lot

Dylan and Leighton were both super interesting characters, and i love their different motifs of rocket ships and roller skates (its also hilarious to me that Dylan is a dead ringer for how i looked at their age, hairstyle and all)
while i do prefer Dylan out of the two, imo Leighton kinda got left in the dust plot-wise. her part of the story just ended so suddenly i had to flip back a few pages to check that i hadn’t missed anything.
otherwise this would’ve been five stars easily. but either way i loved it!! (art style was wonderful, warmer colors for flashback scenes + a rounded style for Leighton/angular style for Dylan were such nice touches and attention to detail)
