I've finished The Golem and The Jinni by Helene Wecker.

And what a pleasure it was! I wanted to read it for some time, and finally I swallowed in three days - rare speed for me now. It started slow, deliberately so, and I enjoyed walking the street of 1899 New York, baking with Chava the Golem, and working in the tinsmith shop, and getting to know all kinds of people... and them following crazy walks of the golem and the ginni and all their talks and arguments... all was good.
