emvdw 's review for:

A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark
2.5

This really didn't do it for me, and I don't know why. It would usually be right up my alley (reminded me a bit of the Rivers of London series, which I really like)... I just didn't find the story or characters very interesting unfortunately. I found the resolution of the central mystery to be very predictable. So unfortunate, I really wanted to like it 😔 

Also, small detail obviously, while Fatma's way of dressing surely is meant to be very stylish, in my minds eye all the outfits that were described looked completely ridiculous.
