Kiley Reid

3.59 AVERAGE


This one was good. I love Kiley Reid’s writing. Millie is absolutely loveable and Agatha too. I wish there had been a bit more depth or dialogue between the two though, it just didn’t go as deep as I wanted it to. The regret I felt for Agatha’s actions at the end was palpable so clearly I was caught up. I’m not sure I’d agree that the way she handled things is realistic but it did make me feel some type of way. Robin was appropriately cringy and detestable (love:hate her). I didn’t love this one as much as Kiley’s last book but that will be difficult to top

Live laugh police. No one writes cringy, semi-subtle, racist dialogue like Kiley Reid

Draaaaaaaaged

Savvy class and race analysis. Just like her last book, it’s propulsive. 

I'd heard mixed reviews, but man I loved this book.

Solid 3.5/5. Some parts did drag and I got confused about characters because of the changing perspectives. It was definitely laugh out loud funny (Peyton. I love that woman) and at times it was like watching a car crash….you couldn’t look away even if you wanted to. The dialogue was very good, I felt immersed in the conversations, and it was a fun little jog down memory lane remembering the dumpster fire that was college dormitory living. Not my favorite book, but still a fun read.
