I loved the first book but the narrator of this one ruined it for me.

Historical Retelling
Revisado: 04-22-22
I am glad I ignored the reviews about this book. While it may let some people down in terms of being "unfeminist" or for the narrator being "too fast" I think the issue lies in the readers overall capability. I listened to the book on 2.00x , 1.75x. and at 1.50x and found that the best flow was between 1.75 - 2.00.
It give a good historical portrayal of gender roles at that time period. The women themselves are unfortunate if you know the story. However the author and narrator do a great job of giving them depth and allowing you to feel their struggles and how the duty of their time forced them into their respective boxes.

I loved this movie as a child, and as an adult the story feels like coming home. It would be a great bed time tale for school age children.

I didn't want to read this because of the hype, but I suppose it was well deserved. the whole story from beginning to end was enchanting and amazing. I highly recommend.

I started playing the games and my bf recommends I read the books. so I said why not. this gives so much backing to the lore in the game and the shows.

Honestly I wasn't sure I would like this since I didn't really think Kyoshi's cult was that interesting in the show. My mind has been changed. It's paced and narrated well and makes you want to know what happens next. I'm about to start the second book.

Helene Wecker's dazzling debut novel tells the story of two supernatural creatures who appear mysteriously in 1899 New York. Chava is a golem, a creature made of clay, brought to life by a strange man who dabbles in dark Kabbalistic magic. When her master dies at sea on the voyage from Poland, she is unmoored and adrift as the ship arrives in New York Harbor. Ahmad is a jinni, a being of fire, born in the ancient Syrian Desert. Trapped in an old copper flask by a Bedouin wizard centuries ago, he is released accidentally by a tinsmith in a Lower Manhattan shop.

So, all I'm going to say is that the plot was riveting. its kind of a slow burn at the beginning but the many twists and turns throughout the story really bring everything together.

Okay, so I only discovered the author because of my friend, but I love how she writes.
I didn't want to read this book because it didn't really relate to Carden and Jude, but I am glad I did. I feel as if this needs a second book to help explain a bit more about Jack...
