NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER AND NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST Lyrical and gritty, this authentic coming-of-age story about a border-town family in Brownsville, Texas, insightfully illuminates a little-understood corner of America. Domingo Martinez lays bare his interior and exterior worlds as he struggles to make sense of the violent and the ugly, along with the beautiful and the loving, in a Texas border town in the 1980s. Partly a reflection on the culture of machismo and partly an exploration of the author's boyhood spent in his sister's hand-me-down clothes, this book delves into the enduring, complex bond between Martinez and his deeply flawed but fiercely protective older brother, Daniel. It features a cast of memorable characters, including his gun-hoarding former farmhand, Gramma, and "the Mimis"-- two of his older sisters who for a short, glorious time manage to transform themselves from poor Latina adolescents into upper-class white girls. Martinez provides a glimpse into a society where children are traded like commerce, physical altercations routinely solve problems, drugs are rampant, sex is often crude, and people depend on the family witch doctor for advice. Charming, painful, and enlightening, this book examines the traumas and pleasures of growing up in South Texas and the often terrible consequences when different cultures collide on the banks of a dying river.Binding Type: Paperback

Amazing!

Wow, what to say about this glitter spray. If you want to cosplay as a Twilight vampire, buy this spray. Haha. I’m not even kidding. I got this spray for going to a concert - one of the few occasions I go all out in getting dressed up. I LOVE sparkly/shiny/glittery things, so this spray seemed like an obvious choice. I did a very light, quick spray over my face/neck and OH. MY. GOSH. “I look like a vampire from Twilight.” My first thought/words after looking at myself in the mirror. My mom got a pretty big kick out of it and couldn’t stop giggling because that’s all she could think about afterward whenever she looked at me.
I expected this spray to be something I’d have to spray multiple coats of, but absolutely not. This is a one and done spray. The glitter is HIGHLY CONCENTRATED. Very, very sparkly with multifaceted color sparkles - not just silver. I got some on my hair when I sprayed myself, so I went ahead and sprayed the back of my hair too. Didn’t put any kind of film or anything in my hair. I was still able to brush it and do everything else as if there was nothing in my hair. At the end of the night, it washed off very easily.
I will say as a pointer, unless you want your hair or clothes to have glitter on them as well, then you should apply this glitter spray BEFORE you get dressed and you should wear a shower cap/bag/something to cover your hair while applying. However, it works just fine on your hair and clothes as well - no staining or damage.
The can looks small BUT with how little you have to use, one can will go a very long way. I could go to 10 concerts and I’m pretty sure this can would still be more than half full.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
