Homebodies
by Tembe Denton-Hurst
Mickey is lost. Her relationship is on shaky ground, she is fired, and retreats home. I could understand her spiraling out of control and making the bad decisions she made. I even liked how her story turned around. But throughout the entire book, it felt muted. Everything felt muted except her interactions with Tee, which I wasn't a fan of. I get it that it was part of the spiral, but I felt that the story and Mickey's emphasis on that part wasn't worth it. Overall, the book did not feel "urgent" or "propulsive."
