A review by mdknudson
The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker

It's hard to believe this is the author's debut book. She brings the characters to life, each with their own stories, and entwines them into a beautiful tapestry of one story. I enjoyed seeing the growth of the Golem and the Jinni as they move among humans and learn the meaning of being alive, with a great hold onto your seat ending!
