Kiley Reid is an expert in character study and social dynamics. Her portrayal of seemingly mundane campus life is hauntingly complex and her characters are multifaceted and morally gray. While her second novel, Come and Get It, does have some slower moments in the plot, the overall dynamics between the characters and the way their lives intertwine are very compelling.
