Acclaimed author Kiley Reid’s fresh and provocative story about desire, consumption, and bad behavior.
It's 2017 at the University of Arkansas, and Millie Cousins—a super-senior resident assistant at Belgrade Dormitory—just wants to graduate, get a job, and buy a house. So when Agatha Paul, a writer and visiting professor itching for her next big topic, offers Millie an easy yet unusual opportunity for them to help each other further their own interests, Millie naturally jumps at the chance.
But Millie's starry-eyed hustle quickly becomes jeopardized by a lonely transfer student, unruly residents, and illicit intrigue. Both Millie and Agatha are forced to question just how much of themselves they are willing to trade to get what they want.
Sharp and intimate, Come and Get It, the new thought-provoking, singular novel by the bestselling and critically acclaimed author Kiley Reid, explores the choices we make, particularly for the things that can and cannot be paid for.

"A thrilling, delectable look at wealth, privilege, and desire."—People Magazine
"Wonderfully immersive, propulsive, and beautifully paced. On page one, there is a story that is already happening, and you’re plunged right into the novel’s world, already up and running, full of real people, and complicated—that is, substantive—as all hell. Just great.”—Paul Harding, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of This Other Eden and Tinkers
"Come and Get It is an engrossing novel full of intimately portrayed characters and the seemingly innocuous choices that lead to life-altering mistakes."—Elizabeth Acevedo, author of Family Lore and The Poet X

Super fun book!
Some of the minor characters seem a little vague, which is how I felt about “such a fun age” too… but it’s just a great hang. A great authorial voice, kind of smart but not making you work too hard. Easy reading is damn hard writing!

Ugh
I kept waiting for the story to start. And then I thought this is an insightful look at a certain cross-section of youth today. Instead it turned out to be a fluffy little nothing. If you are expecting something humorous, then be ready to be disappointed. Valley girl talk is funny for exactly 2 minutes then it becomes grating and to have to endure this for hours is too much. Sorry but I would never recommend this to anyone unless they are masochistic.
