My name is Angelina Rossini. A little about me: I am sixteen years old. I live in Blodgett, Vermont. Population: 854. Most of my life''s been pretty normal for a twenty-first-century American teen. THAT SAID: I''m in love with my best friend who, um, recently came out. I sometimes get the sense that my mother wishes I hadn''t been born. I maintain a low level of hostility with at least one of my classmates. I could deal, though. Mainly because my dad was around, and he was my sun. Our sun, really: my mom''s, my stepsister''s, and mine. My dad kept us all in place, orbiting around him. But then the sun, well...it went out. Click. That was the end of Life As I Knew It -- and the beginning of something a lot different.
