For fans of The Boys in the Boat and In the Garden of Beasts, a pulse-pounding tale of triumph by an improbable team of upstarts over Hitler's fearsome Silver Arrows during the golden age of auto racing. They were the unlikeliest of heroes. Rene Dreyfus, a former top driver on the international racecar circuit, had been banned from the best European teams--and fastest cars--by the mid-1930s because of his Jewish heritage. Charles Weiffenbach, head of the down-on-its-luck automaker Delahaye, was desperately trying to save his company as the world teetered toward the brink. And Lucy Schell, the adventurous daughter of an American multi-millionaire, yearned to reclaim the glory of her rally-driving days. As Nazi Germany launched its campaign of racial terror and pushed the world toward war, these three misfits banded together to challenge Hitler's dominance at the apex of motorsport: the Grand Prix. Their quest for redemption culminated in a remarkable race that is still talked about in racing circles to this day--but which, soon after it ended, Hitler attempted to completely erase from history. Bringing to life this glamorous era and the sport that defined it, Faster chronicles one of the most inspiring, death-defying upsets of all time: a symbolic blow against the Nazis during history's darkest hour.Binding Type: Hardcover

such a great introduction to her writing
Format: Paperback
For a short story I loved it!! I went into Visions of You not knowing much, and ended up reading it in one sitting ~ which always tells me I’m hooked.
This was my first book by Catherine Cowles, and I loved the tension and pining woven throughout the story. The emotional pull between the characters really stood out to me, and I found myself completely invested in their dynamic.
Even though it’s a shorter story, it didn’t feel lacking ~ if anything, I just wanted more by the end. I’m so glad I already have several of her books on my shelves because this definitely made me excited to keep reading.
A solid 4-star read and such a great introduction to her writing.

Finally, a Skincare Set That Actually Feels Made for M
Size: Daily Essentials Kit
I’ve tried a few men’s skincare products before, but this No. 204 Daily Essential Face Kit absolutely blew me away. Everything about it — from the clean packaging to the actual performance — feels like it was designed with real care and quality in mind. It’s simple, effective, and actually makes skincare feel like something I want to do every day.
No. 121 Facial Cleanser: This stuff is a game changer. It has a fresh, masculine scent that’s not overpowering and it really gets deep into the skin without leaving that tight, dry feeling after. My face feels clean but not stripped — which is rare.
No. 123 Facial Moisturizer: Lightweight but super hydrating. It absorbs quickly, doesn’t feel greasy, and keeps my skin feeling smooth all day. I’ve noticed way less flakiness and irritation since I started using it, especially during colder mornings or after workouts.
No. 127 Eye Cream: I didn’t think I’d care about eye cream — but this one actually made a difference. It feels cooling and firming, and my under-eye area looks way less puffy and tired. Even my wife commented that I look more “awake,” which is saying something after years of dad life and early mornings.
The kit makes it really easy to stay consistent. Just three steps, and I’m out the door looking way more put together than I used to. This is now my go-to routine — no fluff, no nonsense, just solid results.
If you’re a guy who wants to take better care of your skin without getting overwhelmed, this set is a total win. Highly recommend!

Mostly great
Size: Daily Essentials Kit
Very good quality cleanser and moisturizer. Those two I would purchase again.
Only complaint: Face lotion is light and applies well but has that sunblock scent that lingers.
