I Didn't Raise My Hand For This

By Shelley Suzanne

I Didn't Raise My Hand For This is about growing up in a small Texas town along with confessions of surviving suburbia today.
Mixing nostalgia and stand-up, the book first sends readers back to the 1980's when life seemed simple, but not for Shelley because of constant battles with her mother, grandmother and aunt over getting inappropriate "glamour shots" at the mall, wearing embarrassing hand-me-down dresses on special occasions and whether or not she should keep a brand of underwear that promised girls they'd have super powers just like Wonder Woman. Forty years later, and the book moves ahead offering observations on 21st century life, as Shelley is married to a man who sometimes believes in magic, she's searching for the deepest secret for painlessly removing gray hairs, and she's praying she'll never have to shop again at Walmart.
