Of Socialites and Prizefights by Arden Powell
3.5
I just didn't care for Deepa's shallowness and materialism - I get it, but I didn't care for it. I did like the later-in-life exploration of her sexuality though.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Loved the world building, it is a bit gothic steampunk but also modern? I really enjoyed all the characters and the fact that they had distinct voices/personalities-I was quite invested in them!
Thank you to the author for the ARC!
The only issues I had were some repetitive word choices (“book it”) and that the spice wasn’t my thing - it seemed slightly out of character for Sebastian? I felt he would be sweeter, but that is probably just my opinion. I ended up skimming through most of the spice 🤪
Thank you to the author for the ARC!

Great anthology! I would say about 2/3 of the stories were close to 4 star.
