Torn between finishing Come and Get It by Kiley Reid or starting Transcription by Kate Atkinson which I picked up last weekend…
The cover of the book Transcription by Kate Atkinson features a flamingo against a blue-grey background The cover of Come and Get it by Kiley Reid shows the title in yellow and blue type alongside a pink piggy bank, against a green background

Jessica B Harris speaking to Andrew Limbong on @npr.org ‘a #BookoftheDay. I love what she says about a world without the improvisation of African Americans.
“I improvise on everything. I write recipe, but I can't follow my own recipes. I improvise. So the bottom line is this is my improvisation, and with an encouragement to others to equally improvise. If you had this world without the improvisation of African Americans, it would be a sad and sorry place. We'd have no tap dancing. We'd have no jazz. We'd have no salsa. We'd have no current street fashion. We'd have no language as we use it. African Americans, by nature, if you will, improvise. We improvise, we ring in the changes, we do our own jazz rifts on pretty much everything that we come in contact with. And the world, and I think equally Kwanzaa, will be very much the better for our improvisations.” From NPR's Book of the Day: 'A Kwanzaa Keepsake and Cookbook' is an updated exploration of Kwanzaa's traditions, 6 Jan 2025 https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/nprs-book-of-the-day/id1587369865?i=1000682597648&r=585 This material may be protected by copyright.
