Audiobook Girl Gurl Grrrl: On Womanhood and Belonging in the Age of Black Girl Magic by Kenya Hunt
n this brilliantly written body of work, author Kenya Hunt tackles heavy topics with a matter-of-fact flare that make its content easy to digest.
In this collection of stories Kenya celebrates the beauty of black women, while also shining a much needed light on how we are often disregarded within this racist world in which we reside. Reading Kenyas words made me feel seen and understood.
The topics discussed vary from black beauty, to the mortality rate during childbirth of black women versus that of our white counterparts. She also writes about the Black AirBnB experience, religion and police brutality. Kenya took me on a historical journey that encouraged me to embrace all the glorious hidden figures from the past.
This book is filled with page upon page of familiar conversations. Conversations Ive had with friends, family and even myself as I silently sat pondering the state of the world, and my place in it.
There are also some very vulnerable moments in the book. An example of this can be seen as the author shares her personal experience with childbirth, miscarriage, and abortion.
Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Honestly, I wasnt sure if I was going to enjoy it. But I did.
Kenya Hunt is an eloquent wordsmith and I look forward to reading more of her work.

Audio Girl Gurl Grrrl: On Womanhood and Belonging in the Age of Black Girl Magic narrated by Amanda Bright Ebele Okobi Funmi Fetto Jessica Horn Kenya Hunt
Girl Gurl Grrrl: On Womanhood and Belonging in the Age of Black Girl Magic by Kenya Hunt is a case of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. And make no mistake, the parts are very good.
I’ll try to explain what I mean by that comment. Like any collection of essays there will be some that are stronger than others or speak to the reader more. This is no different, though there wasn’t, for me, any bad or even borderline essay, just some that spoke to me more while reading than others. I phrased that last part the way I did intentionally. How we read it, what it stirs or doesn’t stir, is largely a function of what the reader brings and the writer’s style. What I find, especially in a collection that speaks to current events and social justice, is that how it sticks with me is more important than how I felt while reading it. And that is where I think this book excels and also why I consider the whole (the reading and the impact after reading) is greater than the sum of its parts (the collection of essays).
I am not a woman and while I have some indigenous heritage I have essentially lived as a white, so anything I could somewhat relate to was either through a “similar to…” type exercise or remembering a friend mentioning something similar about how they feel or what they experienced. So I am not the target audience even though I imagine that I am the type of reader that can learn the most from the book. And learn I did even if it was/is at times uncomfortable (as it should be) and on a couple of occasions talking with friends who can more easily relate and asking questions (yeah, some of them were stupid questions, but they usually elicited the best answers).
I highly recommend this to readers who can either directly relate or want to better understand our current political and cultural environment. These should be read not just with an open mind but while bracketing one’s preconceived ideas and privileges. Read to understand, not argue or refute. You shouldn’t be doing those things before understanding anyway or you’re just debating your own strawmen.

Author: Kenya Hunt
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs/OwnVoices
Sipping Synopsis: This was a book that was a much needed read for me.
It was an easy read but felt so good to see some of my thoughts, feeling, experiences on paper. I enjoyed every chapter, from the oh-so-well written chapter on being WOKE to microaggressions, #blackgirlmagic, hair, black women not getting same medical attention as other races and many other everyday events in a black womans life.
Final sipping thoughts: What I liked most about this book is that it was not preachy- just Hunts (and a few other speakers) views and experiences on being a black woman in America. Not quite the black version of Girl, Wash Your Face but one that should be discussed just as much. If you read this, you will feel like you are just in a room surrounded by your black girlfriends discussing life. While some parts may be viewed as a little heavy, most of the book is just a true, WOKE , conversation of real stuff.
