The mesmerizing New York Times bestseller by the author of Night Film Marisha Pessl's dazzling debut sparked raves from critics and heralded the arrival of a vibrant new voice in American fiction. At the center of Special Topics in Calamity Physics is clever, deadpan Blue van Meer, who has a head full of literary, philosophical, scientific, and cinematic knowledge. But she could use some friends. Upon entering the elite St. Gallway School, she finds some--a clique of eccentrics known as the Bluebloods. One drowning and one hanging later, Blue finds herself puzzling out a byzantine murder mystery. Nabokov meets Donna Tartt (then invites the rest of the Western Canon to the party) in this novel--with visual aids drawn by the author--that has won over readers of all ages.Binding Type: Paperback

Pills up on skin
Color: Untinted (1.7 oz)
I’m on the hunt for the perfect mineral sunscreen for my face because the non mineral kind irritates my eyes. This had good reviews so I figured I’d give it a try. I’m disappointed.
Pros:
It is a mineral sunscreen. The pump application is nice and works well.
I like that it had skincare in it. It feels like moisturizer in my hand. Unfortunately it doesn’t behave that way on my face.
Cons:
It smells like diaper rash cream. This isn’t entirely a problem on its own, and being a mineral sunscreen I wasn’t surprised. But I’ve used others that don’t smell like this.
It pills like crazy. I’ve tried multiple ways of applying it, and I can’t keep it from pilling up on my skin like I’ve just used Dr Melaxin’s peel shot. By the time I wipe off all the little pills, I’m sure I’ve wiped away the sun protection.
I won’t buy this again

Clean ingredients
Color: Untinted (1.7 oz)
Good product. Runs a little thick like every sunscreen with zinc in it. thankfully has great ingredients and there is no beefy smell like some tallow brands. Enjoyable product.

Rosascia, allergies, hot flashes, this is perfect.
As an aging woman, my gave doesn't tolerate much anymore. Have allergies to many things so this keeps my redness at bay. Super cool relief. Glad I found this. Lightweight, works great
