How is it possible for one woman to hold it together when she's:
Confronted with a racing biological clock when she doesn't even know if she wants kids.
Trying to act normal when her heart is smashed into a million pieces.
Ten times smarter than the people she's working for.
Priced out of the housing market in the place she grew up.
Stuck in a situationship when all she wants is the love of her life back . . .
Bigger. Not better. Older. Not wiser. Queenie Jenkins is working on it.
Award-winning author Candice Carty-Williams returns with a scalpel-sharp, poignant and hilarious new book that shines a dazzling light on the realities of modern womanhood.©2026 Candice Carty-Williams

Critic reviews
Queenie's return is welcome and delightfully assured. Fizzing with life, fun and sensual energy, she is one of modern UK fiction's great heroines.
I cannot tell you how much I loved this second slice of Queenie's life. I laughed and cried, and was once again in awe of Candice Carty-Williams ability to depict a real, imperfect life in such a captivating way. I flew through every page, and my only request is that we get to check in again at some point in the future.
In Queenie Is Working On It, Candice Carty-Williams reminds us of the power in community, friends, and family. We join an older Queenie Jenkins in all of her thoughts, process and indecisions. Her conflict, fight and absolutions. A welcomed return filled with enough gasps to leave you bursting at the seams!
No one tells a story like Carty-Williams. QUEENIE IS WORKING ON IT was like being reunited with our adored messiest friend in the warmest way. This book is full of so much heart, humour and honesty and I am so grateful to be living in a world where CCW is writing.
