Kiley Reid is an American author out of Philadelphia who burst on the scene with her hit debut novel, Such a Fun Age. The book, according to Reid, explores “class dynamics in tiny microcultures” and this book explores how class works within the world of babysitting. The novel is set in Philadelphia where Reid herself lives.
The book got a lot of buzz right away and has already seen the film and television rights acquired by Queen & Slim writer/producer Lena Waithe. Kiley prefers to read and write about the moments in life when etiquette and class drop off and people are forced to deal with each other. Revealing moments like this are where she really finds inspiration and wants to write more about as a commentary on social media, sexual consent, class, and race. Reid has an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop.
