Queenie

Queenie / Candice Carty-Williams, read by Shvorne Marks, 330 pgs.

Queenie is a bit of a mess right now.  She has just had a miscarriage with her long term boyfriend with home she has just gone on "break."  She can't afford to live in a very nice place and she can't focus much on work during this "break."  She does have a very strong network of girlfriends to help her through but mostly she is out making bad decisions and screwing every guy in sight.  I can't tell you how much I loved this mess of a woman. She is suffering now but is laying the foundation to figure out who she is and what she wants. If you are an audio listener, this is one of the best examples of great narration that I've come across.  Read it or listen to it but don't miss this fabulous debut novel.
