I think that title is not quite right. It seems slightly generic. I am not sure what you should name it. It is part of you and thus you must look within yourself to find what you think is right. Best of luck.
p.s. Let me know when and where I can get a copy. It sounds really good

Nooooo, that sounds 'way too depressing. In fact the whole premise sounds depressing. Does this have a happy ending or does your heroine learn anything through her mistakes?
Titles that just came to my mind:
"Drawing on Hope"
"The Evening News" ('cause it sounds like something one would see on the news)
"Lessons"
Okay, do you need my address to send along my share of the royalties?? LOL
Good luck getting published. I do hope there is a light at the end of the tunnel for your poor (I hope) fictional heroine!
PLEASE use the "check spelling" button before you submit to a publisher!

"Moan O' Lisa."
Sorry. Ignore that, unless it's a satire.
You might try reading through the book and seeing if any good lines stand out, that also seem to capture the theme. "Needing Hope" doesn't say much, unless the girl's name is Hope.

I would be interested to read a novel called "Needing Hope." Or how about
Harbored Hope
Hope in Disguise
Longing for Hope

This is a depressing book, I hope it has a good ending.
Perhaps, "Silent Soul" but it might sound a bit too much like "Silent Spring." Maybe "Cry from Silence."

I don't know what you should call it, but I guarantee you shouldn't call it "Needing Hope". That title is very depressing and it makes me want to go out of my way to avoid reading it.

are you going to pay me if it sells? how about 'art imitates life' is a catch phase people use but could be a title for a book! or ' or teachers heavy petting'

No, not really. I would just think it was another self-help book. I would name the book, Drowning in a deep blue sea.
