Iron & Velvet by Alexis Hall

3.0

This book has a pretty cool premise with a diverse cast and the world seemed to be like something fun. The mystery and world building was good for the first in a series. However, I felt dropped in the middle without really knowing anything about the characters backstories and while those backstories seemed pretty important to the plot, I always felt like I was missing something. I believe its a series so I'm hopeful that those details will be filled in eventually but that did make it very difficult to slip into the book's world. I will probably read the next one in the series eventually if it exists.
