Queenie

Written by Kimberley Chambers

Narrated by Annie Aldington

The explosive new novel from the No.1 Sunday Times bestseller

SHE WAS MADE IN THE EAST END . . .

For young Queenie, life in the backstreets of Whitechapel was a lesson in survival – Hitler’s bombs hit those with nothing the hardest. When danger strikes close to home, Queenie finds an ally in Mrs O’Leary, whose two sons are the kingpins of the East End. But while the O’Learys are the light in Queenie’s life, fate has a different path in store.

AND MEN ARE WHAT THEIR MOTHERS MAKE THEM . . .

Now married to the useless Albie Butler, Queenie is raising her children to fight their own battles. If the O’Learys taught her anything, it was that surviving meant doing whatever you had to, no questions asked, and family always comes first. The Butler boys will make sure their mother’s name becomes East End legend.

MEET QUEENIE.
THIS IS HER STORY.

Reviews for Queenie

[Maggie · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Good book but I found Queenie's character very hard to like & warm too..
It's more a book on 2 narcissistic characters ( Queenie & Vinny who are just horrible bullies)

[Boots1983 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Yet again Kimberley Chambers gives us an excellent history of mid 20th century London, a true to life drama written with knowledge of the lives and feelings of the East Enders
A book through which you can relate to the times
A great read
