Queenie was not what I expected at all. It was a tough read, and by tough I mean it was an honest story that sucks you in. It was very well written, I could picture each character and even though Queenie doesn’t like to be hugged, I would have hugged her!
Queenie is a British, Jamaican young woman, only 25, who’s life seemed to be on track and then after a break-up was very derailed. She works at a newspaper but never gets to write the story she wants. She loves her family but never seems to please them. She wants to date again but always picks men with the wrong intentions. And as for herself, she is waning when it comes to self worth.
Queenie looks in all the wrong places to find who she is. She is always asking herself why she is doing something, or how did she end up back here. Being so young she has the whole world riding on her shoulders and wants all the answers. If you are looking for a candid story about a character you will genuinely feel for, then this book is for you!
