Another great read ...

Couldn't put it down. Great to get the back story about Queenie and meet up with the other characters. Vinny is still a prick! LOL. Not as gritty as the other books in the Mitchell/Butler series but a great read, all the same. And well done on the Irish family and a proper portrayal ... not like some authors who make us out to be leprechauns!

Brilliant prequel

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2020

This is the prequel to the Butler series and wowzers what a prequel it is. This book tells the story of Queenie Wade as a child and growing up with her parents and younger sister Viv. We learn of her life during WW 2 right up to the early 1960’s. This book was absolutely fantastic. I honestly couldn’t put it down . Superb characters and a great storyline. A massive 5⭐️ read for me.

Brilliant, story telling at its best

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 29, 2020

Verified Purchase

Fans of KC have been waiting for this book, in previous books Queenie is the matriarch Mum/Nan/Sister/Friend in the Butler series and this book charts her life from the beginning right up to the first Butler book

Queenie is a legend in the other books and so it was good to see how she started life and what she did to make sure her boys succeeded, often amoral and even more often hypocritical she moved anything and anyone that stood in her boys way and equally anyone who got in her way with her well known fiery temper and single mindedness

Tbh I always liked Queenie in the other books but at times just what she ‘overlooked’ re her boys behaviours especially Vinnie didn’t endear me to her quite so much this time

BUT its a great read, KC is as legend as Queenie is and every one of the 512 pages is up to the usual story telling and ‘real’ life narrative and if you have enjoyed her last 14 books then you will adore this one as well

This is a great book to immerse yourself in and for fans of the Butlers a must read that cant disappoint and brings a huge feel good factor to her fans and readers

10/10

As always absolutely brilliant ! Literally just finished Queenie and so much is explained. What a cracking story, sad, funny and pure entertainment.
Don’t stop writing Kimbo , I’d be bereft.

Not as good as her others.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 9, 2020

I am a fan Of Kimberley Chambers but this book is not as good as her others. Also if you have already read The Trap and the rest in that series you will see the mistakes in this one - different things said about certain characters in this book to what is said in The Trap. (This is a prequel). Its as if Kimberley has got lazy whilst writing this one...not caring about mistakes and not taking the time to read through what she has already written previously.
The book is quite enjoyable and has the usual wit in amongst the nasty stuff but I wouldn't really recommend this one.

Well what can i say except that in my own opinion Kimberley Chambers has given us her BEST book yet.I have been a massive fan of hers and have read all her books,the Butler books have given us so much entertainment and so when i read the blurb for Queenie i knew i had to have it.Queenie and Viv have a troublesome childhood but when they are evacuated Queenies life is never the same again.When they return home both girls settle back in but a shadow hovers over Queenie and Mary bides her time but eventually is told what happened.Now i have read this book i now know why Queenie is such a hard bitch in the Butler books.Kimberley Chambers you have nailed it and if i could i would give more *
