Excerpt

I am so not wearing tights and a cape.

If you think the first day at a new school sucks, try being the daughter of a washed-up super hero. My mom quit the League of Liberty after evil villains tried to take over the world and my dad disappeared. Why is it that the villains always want to take over the world? Why don’t they just want to take over, say, Miami? They could have fun doing their villain thing on the drug dealers who, let’s face it, nobody would miss, and plus they’d get beaches. But, nooooo, it always has to be the entire world.

Most evil villains suffer from a case of the Greedy Gimmies, if you ask me.

So, there we were in Skyville, Florida, and I got to start the first day of sophomore year with total strangers. I figured if some lame teacher asked me to stand up and tell the class all about myself, Going Postal would no longer be an expression. The new one would be Going Jessie.
