Colbert, Brandy

Finding Yvonne

(3) YA High-school senior Yvonne realizes that she has lost her passion for the violin and isn't good enough to attend a music conservatory after graduation. She struggles to forge a new path, finding an ally in street musician Omar and risking her relationship with current love interest Warren. It takes an unplanned pregnancy for Yvonne to decide who she wants to be. Colbert's characters are complex: equal parts endearing and infuriating.
