Putnam's Sons, Photography by David Goddard Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid Emira Tucker is a recent black college graduate without much in the way of career ambition or life savings. Alix Chamberlain is a wealthy white thirtysomething lifestyle influencer with two young kids and a looming deadline for a book manuscript. Kelley Copeland, also in his thirties, is a white Penn State graduate with a marketing job who likes Kendrick Lamar and has a thing for black women. When Emira, who babysits Alix's children, is accused of kidnapping Alix's oldest daughter by a clueless white security guard in a bougie supermarket, the incident sets off a chain of events that have these three characters colliding in unexpected, uncomfortable ways. Writing in a breezy, conversational style, Reid has a knack for creating recognizable characters — both Alix and Kelley are particularly devastating send-ups of a certain kind of earnest white liberal. Her portrayal of Emira and her group of girlfriends, who still drink and party like they're in college, also feels particularly true to that early struggling twentysomething life.
