The story seems to end pretty abruptly though it wraps up pretty nicely. There’s a big focus on the portrayal of women in popular media, with every MC having experienced some rough treatment at the hands of the news media. Each character struggles to find their place & identity in a world driven largely by men & each one has a story about how women get portrayed by the media. Through their discussions, they find a lot of similarities between their experiences & come out with a sense of camaraderie (exacerbated by the big revelation at the end). Highly recommend
