infryq reviewed Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker
Review of 'Golem and the Jinni' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Stellar historical fiction following two supernatural characters as they find their way to sustainable lives in immigration-era New York City. This is a great character story, filled with little vignettes that deepen the reader's understanding of everyone we see in the book. The flashbacks are well-defined, the two primary threads weave together inevitably without seeming overly contrived, and the denouement is masterfully paced. Definitely makes the list of my best reads of 2017.
