Rated The coup / John Updike 6/10
Hmmm. Enjoyable, but ultimately kind of slight; beautifully written but too in love with its own language; too queasy-making about race and touched through with whatever the Africa version of "Orientalism" would be. Recommended with reservations - I haven't read much Updike but have to assume this is regarded as a lesser work.

Rated A Master of Djinn 8/10
<div>While sometimes the writing style wasn't for me — a Me problem, as I like my descriptions unfussy — I was still very much invested in this book. I liked the alternate-history-Cairo setting, where magic is real and its particulars legislated on a variety of planes, and the characters were all very distinct from one another. I'm interested in reading more, which works out nicely, since I have a novella set in this universe too.</div>
