About the book:
Valerie Bernowski hates her school, her plaid uniform skirt, and her flat feathered hair. She also hates being teased and called "polock" so much, she tells everyone she's Swedish.
When Valerie finds out her parents are getting divorced her world turns upside down. She begins to rebel against the Catholic faith and the ones who push it on her; her mother, Sister Mary Angelina, and even Father "Fingers."
Valerie's story begins in the mid-'80s, when new wave was big and the hairstyles were even bigger. Her tales unfold through intertwining chapters of flashbacks and present day reflections. Her bumpy road to self-discovery is paved with a cynical sense of humor, a longing for love, and a struggle to find faith.
Will Valerie realize that in order to move forward, she needs to let go of the pain of the past and the fear of her future?

Funny too, my little one's Godfather is Alexander, and his Godmother is Manuela, so his names match with theirs, although we planned his name before we picked them.. isn't that funny?
Hi there! I actually got the name from the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and just called him Xander. His name is Xander Manuel, so we call him X-man for short! :) I didn't want people to call him Alex, so we just went with Xander. My oldest, Victoria, we call Tori, but everyone in school always calls her Vikki until she corrects them, so I didn't want to do the same with him.
I am glad to her that the chocolate shot glasses were a hit with the ladies. I should have asked you to have one for me. Maybe next time. Have a great night!!
