The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker

5.0

This was a very interesting read! I rarely read historical fantasies, so this was quite a treat. The characters were thorough, interesting, and full of personality. The plot was pretty good too- mostly driven by the character’s needs/wants. I was a little sad that the main women character (the Golem) was a creature searching for a master, but after a while the character grows much further than this need. I didn’t quite understand the Jinni’s sexcapade… but maybe I missed something there?

Overall, an interesting read and I appreciated the historical fantasy genre more than I thought I would!
