Service95 Recommends Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams

Queenie

Candice Carty-Williams

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and our contributors' reviews. Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams is a sparky, subversive take on the life and loves of a 25-year-old British-Jamaican woman.

What We Say: “Queenie is a typical millennial Londoner – struggling in her fledgling media career and navigating a toxic dating scene, while also dealing with anxiety and rock-bottom self-worth. She’s a funny, flawed, vulnerable heroine you can’t help but root for” – Olivia McCrea-Hedley  

What They Say: “At turns hilarious and reflective, the book is also an exploration of race, sex and shame among young women. Queenie’s is a rare and urgently needed voice” – Katie Glass, The Times

Available on Bookshop.org, Waterstones and Barnes & Noble
