I thoroughly enjoyed this as someone who works in media. I also really appreciate a messy set of intertwined characters and personal lives to empathize with. Our characters here are raw, imperfect and full of heart -- very believably real people and relationships. However, this left a lot of question marks/loose ends for me at the end, and i'm more of a certainty-in-endings girl. 

perhaps there will be a sequel for our Mickey??? would love to know what happens next in her world.

I can fully appreciate this was a good book but I struggle when the main narrative arc relates to someone lying to and keeping secrets from their closest family and friends. Triggering! Also, as someone with no filter, I cannot relate.
