Mika in Real Life by Emiko Jean
5.0
I honestly didn't know anything about this one going in except for the fact that I've read other books by Emiko Jean and really enjoyed them. I. LOVED. THIS. BOOK. There were highs and lows and a main character that is a lost train wreck from beginning to end. It's able to maintain a light feeling throughout the story despite the characters hitting painful life hiccups. I loved seeing a flawed character who does not end up "fixed" by the end of the book. She's still a mess, but there's a shift in her that will help her grow moving forward. I want more books like this where we don't see characters do a full 180, but rather where they end up at a point where they realize things need to change. it's a HIT!
