Nicole Lewis performs this sophomore novel from Booker longlisted author Kiley Reid. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Kendra Winchester talk about how Reid excels at writing dialogue, and Lewis’s performance of those conversations takes them to a whole new level. Millie Cousins is a senior resident assistant at the University of Arkansas with big dreams, and when a visiting professor and journalist offers her money in exchange for eavesdropping on her dorm’s residents, she takes the risk. As the drama around this college dorm twists and turns, Lewis’s narration keeps listeners enraptured until the very end.
