Fruit Punch: A Memoir by Kendra Allen
4.0
Thank you Ecco and NetGalley for the Advanced Reader's Copy!

I've been a huge fan of Kendra Allen ever since her debut poetry collection, the Collection Plate, last year. Fruit Punch follows similar themes of childhood, religion, family and identity. Effortlessly switching between prose and poetry, Allen takes us on a heartbreaking journey as a young Black girl finds her way to womanhood in an often cruel world. This is a tender, truly felt memoir.
