I read The Golem and The Jinni years back and loved it, so I was looking forward to #reading this sequel, #thehiddenpalace by #helenewecker While I enjoyed the story, it wasn’t as captivating as the first one. I did enjoy how historical events drove parts of the story. It made you think about progress in a very different way. #bookstagram #bookgeek #bookworm #booknerd #audiobooks #readersofinstagram #bookish #readmorebooks #bookaddict #books #bookaholic #bibliophile #bibliotherapy #read #historicalfiction #audiobookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CTQf0aPp91j/?utm_medium=tumblr

“Faith is believing in something even without proof, because you know it in your heart to be true.”⠀ ⠀ 🍁 ¡Hola, Hola! ¿Como están? ¿Qué tipo de estilo de escritura es su favorita? En lo personal, me encantan los libros descriptivos, lentos y atmosféricos, sobre todo en esta época del año. ¿Alguna recomendación? La mia es The Golem & Jinni se desarrolla en NY a principios de 1900. Es la historia de un genio (Ahmad) atrapado en una vasilla por siglos y de una Golem (Chava) construida para ser la esposa de un humano, pero el humano muere y ella se siente perdida.. Es una historia muy bonita, realismo mágico, donde estos dos seres mágicos, que son muy diferentes, tratan de acoplarse a convivir con humanos y entender el porque estan aqui.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 🍁 Hi! How are you? What writing style is your favorite? Personally, I love descriptive, slow and atmospheric books, (especially in this season) Any recommendation? Mine is The Golem & Jinni. It takes place in NY in the early 1900s. And is the story of a genie (Ahmad) trapped in a pot for centuries and a Golem (Chava) built to be the wife of a human, but the human dies and she feels lost. It's magical realism, where those creatures feel lost in the human world, they want to understand and enjoy the world and learn why they are here.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #thegolemandthejinni #helenewecker #bookrecommendation#bookstagram #fantasyreads #readerlove #bookflatlay #booklion #cozyvibes #warmandcozy #becauseofbooks #thedarklibrarians #booknerdigan #becauseofreading #paranormalbooks #fallreads #fallbooks #igbooks #readersunite (en New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGhxw5QA-td/?igshid=w515fexxsn1k

Looking for some historical fiction with plenty of magical realism? ✨ *The Golem and the Jinni* by Helene Wecker is a mesmerizing personal account of two magical creatures passing as human in New York City in the final years of the 19th century ⌛ Aside from Chava and Ahmad, our Golem and Jinni respectively, there is a cast of bright and diverse characters, showing the foundational immigrant narratives that are just as definitive of NYC as any other 🗽 This novel is beautifully and honestly written. QOTD: If you could be any creature from mythology or folklore, what would you be? 👹 I think it would be really cool to be a shape shifter and be able to disguise yourself or change your appearance at will. Having a bad hair day? Got acne? Fuhgettaboutit! 😂 ************************************* #bookstagram #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #booklover #bookphotography #readersofinstagram #booksofinstagram #booklove #bookaddict #bookporn #becauseofreading #bookblogger #books #read #literature #tolacunaandback #TLAB #thegolemandthejinni #helenewecker #golem #jinni #historicalfiction #magicalrealism #folklore #mythology #newyorkcity

В Петербург пришла весна! 🌸 — Самое прекрасное время, чтобы окунуться в романтическое построение, а потому мои личные рекомендации: • #АЕщёЯТанцую, где вы найдёте для себя и весёлую, и грустную историю о том, как случайность может стать грандиозным началом новой страницы в жизни • #ГолемИДжинн, которая может, на первый взгляд, показаться обычной историей, которых много, но затем, по мере чтения, удивитесь глубине этой книги! . . . #golemandthejinni #helenewecker #bookworm #bookphotography #literature #booklovers (at Saint Petersburg, Russia)

I'm in love with the gorgeous deckled edges on The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker. This book is so beautiful and I was surprised by the detail in the cover and the pages. I'll be reading this book next month for the @randralong. Will you be joining us? #thegolemandthejinni #helenewecker #beautifulbooks #decklededge

Favorite tweets: Okay okay I know I’m like 17 years late but I just finished The Golem and the Jinni and it was STUNNINGLY good, I don’t know if I’ve ever audibly gasped that much reading a book. If you haven’t read it yet you must (ty @helenewecker)— Quinn Rose (@aspiringrobotfm) September 13, 2018

Radio Free Skaro #649 - The Power of The Power of Kroll (w/@jsnell, @helenewecker, & @HollygoDarkly) #DoctorWho

Cast your minds back to the early days of Radio Free Skaro when there just hosts, Steven and Warren, and they would press record and then plan what they were going to talk about? Well, this episode is a throwback to those pre-smartphone days of the podcast, with Steven and Warren convening in a hotel room in San Jose, CA (home of WorldCon 76), along with guests Jason Snell, Helene Wecker, and…

As promised last week, since June has ended, here are my latest book reviews.

The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker

I’ll begin with this delightful beauty since I’ve literally just finished it.

My first thoughts are of gratitude to Wecker for embracing two cultures which are so intimate to myself, I felt I was reading a personal, alternate history of familiar lives long parted from me. It…
