You may not know this but with W be easy you can catch up on the news live anytime you want with the

W be easy app or at 91.5 on your car radio whether you beam it or stream it, the news is on W.B.E.Z.

From W.B.E.C. Chicago, I'm Greta Johnson, and this is the

Nurdat Book Club. It's just like a regular book club, except sometimes the

author stops by. It is the month of February, and our book this month is

Kylie Reed's second novel.

It's called Come and Get It and it mostly takes place at the University of Arkansas

and there are a number of different characters but the book largely centers around Millie. She's a fifth year senior at the University of

Arkansas and she has been saving to buy a house in town. It's kind of a big dream

but it seems like it might actually happen. One of her jobs is as an

R. A. at a nearby dorm where she oversees students in their shared living spaces.

She becomes particularly entangled with the three students living in the rooms right next to her.

And speaking of entanglements, there's also Agatha, a visiting professor who has come to

campus to write a book about students and money.

That is all I'm going to say for now

because this is a spoiler-free conversation.

Kylie, welcome back to Nurdad.

Thank you so much for having me.

I'm happy to chat.

I am so happy to talk about this book largely because it stressed me out so much like in the best possible

way. You know I really love a low-level dread in a novel so that makes me very happy.

You were stressed out.
