After Famesick
Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams
If Famesick gave you permission to cringe at your own validation-seeking spiral, Queenie hands you a London media job and a string of humiliating hookups that hit exactly the same nerve. Candice Carty-Williams delivers that weaponized vulnerability you crave—a Black British protagonist self-sabotaging through texts, therapy sessions, and toxic situationships while the world judges every inch of her body and ambition. It's aspirational dysfunction for the therapy-obsessed generation who know their pain is privilege.
