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.

Starts very slow, but listen to the entire thing, I promise its worth it.
We got to know the characters in this book very well, which was fine, but nothing happened until I was 80% through. I kept waiting for a plot to emerge and was a bit disappointed with the whole experience.
Hogwash. Confusing. Did not care about any of the characters.
Not well written. Hard to understand
White woman, almost 80, and I kept thinking I was on another planet while reading the book. My mother was a live-in maid for a University of Arkansas professor and his family during the Depression. Thinking of Fayetteville now and then was trippy. Agatha making her getaway toward Eureka Springs was another time warp. Oh, and I loved Millie.
