A review by littlelarks
Iron Cast by Destiny Soria

4.0

Iron Cast is far from perfect - a little too much telling instead of showing - but it's a really fun YA romp that is low on the romance, high on the female friendship, and containing all the glamour and flair you'd expect with the titular setting being a ~magical~ 20s speakeasy. Extra points for making Ava a person of color AND for actually examining what that would mean in this era.

Spoiler

Also for making one of the love interests a *gasp* socialist, and for milking that reveal for all the drama it would've actually been worth in this era.
