'Quiet, complex, vulnerable ... it's really powerful to show a raw, relatable character trying to decide if the career she's worked toward for her entire life is worth the pain it causes her' Reader review, ¿¿¿¿¿

She's stayed quiet for too long. Now it's time to speak her truth.Until twenty-four hours ago, Mickey Hayward was living the life she'd always dreamed of. She was working for a popular media company, and she was in a committed loving relationship.
Now she's fired, tossed aside for a younger, more 'agreeable' Black writer. Sick of being overlooked, she responds with an online letter detailing the racism she's faced within the industry. And when a media scandal turns Mickey's post into a viral sensation, suddenly everyone wants to hear what she has to say.
That's what Mickey has always wanted - isn't it?
Don't miss this incredibly witty, intimate, and moving debut. Perfect if you love:
¿¿Coming of age
¿¿Old flame
¿¿Love triangle
¿¿¿City girl/small hometown
