Queenie

內容簡介

內容簡介 ‘Hilarious, compelling, painful, enlightening, honest. I loved it’ – Dolly Alderton ‘Brilliant, timely, funny, heartbreaking’ – Jojo Moyes ‘Inspirational, funny and wise’ – Kit de Waal Queenie Jenkins can’t cut a break. Well, apart from one from her long term boyfriend, Tom. That’s definitely just a break though. Definitely not a break up. Stuck between a boss who doesn’t seem to see her, a family who don’t seem to listen (if it’s not Jesus or water rates, they’re not interested), and trying to fit in two worlds that don’t really understand her, it’s no wonder she’s struggling. She was named to be queen of everything. So why is she finding it so hard to rule her own life? Perfect for fans of Dolly Alderton, Sally Rooney and Diana Evans, and anyone who loved Fleabag and Dear White People.
