We Used to Live Here:
"What kind of mind fuckery was this?
I am not sure I understand the hype with this one. I feel it was mis-marketed and I didn't get what I came for. I am going to hold off on my overall thoughts as this is for a reading project but...... I am kind of jus" Read more of this review » |

shared a note and highlight from
Queenie
by
Candice Carty-Williams (Goodreads Author)
“It’s constant, with you. It’s too much,” Tom said, his voice cracking. “You’re too much, Queenie.”
If you’re a Black woman, I can guarantee that you’ve either been told that you’re too much, or you’ve been made to feel that you’re too much. For me, it was constant microaggressions that made me feel as though I was too much. I was either called ‘loud’ or ‘very confident’ or ‘a character’, especially at work, even though I’m quite a shy person. It felt important for Queenie to have to understand, from someone that she loves, that the perception of her is bound to stereotype, and that Tom has never really seen the person that she is.

Queenie
by

All of my grandmother’s responses come with a Caribbean frame of reference that forces me to accept that my problems are trivial.
I remember laughing loads when I wrote this line. Here’s Queenie, this twenty five year old second generation Jamaican who is going through this biggest pain she’s ever known, trying to explain heartbreak to her seventy something grandmother who has lived the sort of life Queenie couldn’t begin to imagine. Of course, this isn’t solely Caribbean grandparents. All of our grandparents had to navigate a different kind of hard life. Not having social media has probably saved their minds from a lot of extra trauma, though.
