Dove is sweet, occasionally. She is not so loud but ain’t too quiet either. Dove loves cameras and she loves love, both the genre and the verb. Dove also wants to love a boy. To clarify, she wants to be in love with a boy who loves her back. Little did she know, she’d meet a boy and that’s where her story would take flight. This is the story of a not-so-scary solo trip, a group of people who became her people (and almost stayed her people), and a boy who almost loved a girl called Dove. Everyone has a coming-of-age story. This one just happens to belong to a never-not-anxious girl named Dove.

Hello! I am hoping to publish my book. This is a coming of age story about a young black girl, loosely based on my life. I am looking for critiques and opinions.
