MIRA

How do you heal when the world keeps breaking you? How do you protect what you love most... when what has to heal you is breaking you down day by day?

Mira is in labor-not with a child, but with a story.
A story that bleeds with the pain of mental illness, self-hate, and the small, trembling joys of holding on to the tiniest hopes of becoming whole.
Not because she is muscular, but because she has a heart that dares to battle with her soul.

Between panic attacks, failed therapy sessions, and the ghosts of her past, she fights to stay afloat in a world that doesn't know how to hold her.
The letters! The letters that make her emotions spiral-anchor her to a wishful love of gentle, healthy masculinity.

Levi, a man who is not perfect but reads her like a book he has reread a million times, is exactly what she needed but never dared to wish for.
MIRA is a modern African novel about girlhood, mental health, and the slow resurrection of self-love.

If you've ever whispered, "Maybe tomorrow I'll believe it's my turn..." then this story is for you. 💛
