Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams

 


Book I own. Read January 2022.

5/5 stars


This is a book that doesn't hold back and it feels like such a necessary read.


All white people should read this and especially white men. Stop fetishizing black women, stop using and abusing them.


I loved Queenie, she was strong but in a fragile way. I loved her growth throughout and how she gradually realised that she needed help and accepted it. I really appreciated that it showed the divide in family attitudes towards getting help.


Her friends were a great mix but I hated Cassandra and her lack of faith in her supposed best friend!


Overall I loved this book but it's a difficult one to review. The summary is just read it.
