review:
'Queen Street' written and drawn by Emmanuelle Chateauneuf is a semi-autobiographical graphic novel.

Aimee was a lawyer when she lived in the Philippines, but she left there to immigrate to Canada and get married. Now she is raising a busy young girl, and doesn't see her husband much. She lives in an apartment with an eclectic group of people who help her raise her daughter. She also tries to find work, but as an immigrant, her jobs tend to be in restaurants.

This had a lot of potential. The description sounded really interesting, but the book just doesn't deliver. I like a lot of what's going on, but it kind of peters out about halfway through, and it left me wanting something a lot better.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamonds Book Distributors and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
