SYNOPSIS:
One of the Best Science Fiction, Fantasy, or Horror of 2015 by VOYA Magazine
Wishing doesn’t make it so, Azra does.
Azra has just turned sixteen, and overnight her body lengthens, her olive skin deepens, and her eyes glisten gold thanks to the brand-new silver bangle that locks around her wrist. As she always knew it would, her Jinn ancestry brings not just magical powers but the reality of a life of servitude, as her wish granting is controlled by a remote ruling class of Jinn known as the Afrit.
To the humans she lives among, she's just the girl working at the snack bar at the beach, navigating the fryer and her first crush. But behind closed doors, she's learning how to harness her powers and fulfill the obligations of her destiny.
Mentored by her mother and her Zar "sisters," Azra discovers she may not be quite like the rest of her circle of female Jinn . . . and that her powers could endanger them all.
Azra’s tale comes to a thrilling and heartfelt conclusion in the sequel, CIRCLE OF JINN, releasing May 17, 2016 and available for preorder now. PRAISE
"The genie theme is original and appealing. Azra is likable; her struggles--even factoring in the genie issue--are real and relatable. This well-written title . . . will not stay on the shelf.” -- VOYA Starred Review
"The only thing it left me wishing for was the sequel!" -- New York Times best-selling author Anna Banks
"A fresh, gently subversive tale with a new strain of paranormal problems at its core." -- B&N Teen Blog

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Born into an Italian-Irish family (hence the short temper and the freckles), Lori
Goldstein grew up in a small town on the Jersey shore and now makes her home outside of Boston in a place close enough to the ocean that on the right day, she can smell the sea from her back deck, and yet it still takes an hour to get to the beach. She earned her bachelor’s degree in journalism and worked as a writer, editor, and graphic designer before embracing her love of fictional people. When not writing or reading (preferably from a sandy local), Lori can be found chatting books, obsessing over The Vampire Diaries, and perfecting the art of efficient writing through Twitter.
