Mickey 7 is an enjoyable book, but no more than that. Frankly, my interest in reading it was due to the upcoming movie and only because the director is one of my favorite filmmakers, not because the story looked particularly engaging.
Its problem? How limited its plot is. The book hints at an interesting narrative backstory, but this is merely anecdotal to provide a few explanations for other scenes in the main storyline, which moves forward without making it clear where it's going. And when it finally shows its cards, it is beyond disappointing to read how the author resolves it.
It's a quick read, but that doesn't stop it from being extremely disappointing.
