Granted, the premise is remarkably similar - a young girl who passes as a boy in order to save her ailing father when he is summoned to serve the Emperor - but Lim’s story of a young woman posing as a candidate for the job of Royal Tailor has more depth of character, more intrigue, more adventure, and especially more magic than a Disney movie can provide. Spin the Dawn is a Y/A fantasy novel that has been billed as “ Project Runway meets Mulan,” but that description doesn’t go nearly far enough. “Don’t become the kite that never flies.” BOOK REVIEW spin the dawn by elizabeth lim ![]()
