Shayla Jean-Baptiste has always been too much. Too loud when she laughs, too bold when she enters a room, too opinionated when she opens her mouth. And now? She's too tired to keep pretending she's got it all together.
Between finishing her master's degree, blogging her secrets under a name nobody knows, dodging situationships, juggling complicated friendships, and showing up as the "therapist" in a Haitian family that doesn't believe in therapy-Shayla is over it. Over her mom asking why she's still single. Over her dad minding everyone's business but his own. Over her sister's drama, her brother's silence, and a church that wants her nodding even though she stopped believing a long time ago.
Rent is high. Jobs are draining. Cancel culture stays lurking. And love? Don't even ask.
Overit is a sharp, funny, and brutally honest coming-of-age story about surviving your twenties as a Black Haitian woman in a world that wants you to smile pretty while carrying everybody else's secrets.
