However, pineapples are just as nutritious as they are succulent and can fit into any healthy eating plan (as long as you're not allergic). Debut author King skillfully brings to light the layered, deeply complex machinations that lurk below the surface in families and confer the fragile impression of normalcy; this family's crosshairs of obligation, love, and resentment, too, are never oversimplified. She goes out of her way to please mama, including wearing yellow foundation to make her look more Asian and dying her hair black and preparing mama’s spoiled orange juice (yuk) although Lily has to taste it first (double yuk). Such an impressively written psychological and literary plot to me— the twisted element in its conflicts were so darkly addictive that I think this would be the most damaged group of characters could ever existed in a plot.

She lives with her parents in Greenwich, South-East London and has two older siblings: a sister, Julia and a brother, Jacob. Bad Fruit cuts away the skin of a family as if a daughter could be a knife slicing through lies, pain, and fear. A masterful exploration of mothers and daughters, inherited trauma and the race to break its devastating cycle, Bad Fruit will leave readers breathlessly questioning their own notions of femininity, race and redemption.Debut author King skillfully brings to light the layered, deeply complex machinations that lurk below the surface in families and confer the fragile impression of normalcy; this family’s crosshairs of obligation, love, and resentment, too, are never oversimplified.

This book was more than just a thriller to me, it was about the characters, especially Lily and learning along with her. It's genuinely taken the breath out of me, this book - I love it, but I'm definitely going to need some recovery time after the gutpunches in that ending.

It starts with Lily, only weeks away from starting at Oxford, jumping through every hoop she can think of to keep her volatile mother happy, down to tasting the spoiled juice her mother likes - she can tell if Lily doesn't.I am blown away by Ella’s talent for writing not only wonderful prose but complex and intriguing characters.

So please trust me when I say that you need to give this book a try if you're a fan of thrillers you won't regret it! There's a vividness in the writing but the flashbacks and sheer number of dark family secrets to be unfurled made it lose some impact for me. however, i could not give it a 3 star rating because it got boring after the first act — the constant hallucinations felt repetitive and it made the plot stagnant. As it reaches a climax towards the end it’s heartbreaking, so tense the atmosphere can be cut with a knife and although it’s not an easy read you are transfixed.This is an exceptional novel about a toxic mother-daughter relationship and I found it extremely difficult to put down.
