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?

Rise was an interesting novella in the Paper Gods series. It alternates between the story of Izanagi and Izanami, the first of the ancient gods of Japan and Yuki and Tanaka's story.
I liked reading about Yuki and Tanaka's first date and how they finally decided to date. It was also enlightening to read how the first gods of Japan came to be.
It was great and I would definitely recommend it to fans of the series and fans of Japanese mythology.
