2019 SCIBA Book Award Winner for Biography A Hugo and Locus Award Finalist Winner of the Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Award The Los Angeles Times Bestseller A Thrillist Best Book of the Year A Book Riot Best Book of 2019 One of Booklist's 10 Best Art Books of the Year The Lady from the Black Lagoon uncovers the life and work of Milicent Patrick--one of Disney's first female animators and the only woman in history to create one of Hollywood's classic movie monsters As a teenager, Mallory O'Meara was thrilled to discover that one of her favorite movies, Creature from the Black Lagoon, featured a monster designed by a woman, Milicent Patrick. But for someone who should have been hailed as a pioneer in the genre, there was little information available. For, as O'Meara soon discovered, Patrick's contribution had been claimed by a jealous male colleague, her career had been cut short and she soon after had disappeared from film history. No one even knew if she was still alive. As a young woman working in the horror film industry, O'Meara set out to right the wrong, and in the process discovered the full, fascinating story of an ambitious, artistic woman ahead of her time. Patrick's contribution to special effects proved to be just the latest chapter in a remarkable, unconventional life, from her youth growing up in the shadow of Hearst Castle, to her career as one of Disney's first female animators. And at last, O'Meara discovered what really had happened to Patrick after The Creature's success, and where she went. A true-life detective story and a celebration of a forgotten feminist trailblazer, Mallory O'Meara's The Lady from the Black Lagoon establishes Patrick in her rightful place in film history while calling out a Hollywood culture where little has changed since.Binding Type: Paperback

retty color, but the comfort isn’t there.
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
I only received one pillowcase in my package, which was disappointing since it’s sold as a set of two. I’m also not a fan of this satin material — it runs hot and I end up sticking to it. The color is a pretty metallic silver, but the pillowcase itself feels cheap compared to brands like Kitsch. Overall, this one just isn’t for me.

Smooth Dreams & Frizz-Free Mornings
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
These satin pillowcases are a total luxury upgrade without the silk price tag. The fabric feels buttery-smooth and cool against the skin—perfect for hot sleepers or anyone who loves that “fresh pillow” feeling all night long. I especially love how it helps tame bedhead and keeps my hair from getting tangled or frizzy while I sleep.
The light grey color looks elegant and fits right into any bedroom style, and the envelope closure keeps the pillow snugly in place (no annoying slipping or bunching). They wash beautifully—no fading, pilling, or losing that silky finish.
If you’ve been curious about silk pillowcases but don’t want the maintenance or cost, these satin ones are a perfect alternative. Cooling, soft, and hair-friendly—honestly, they make bedtime feel just a little more glamorous.

Luxurious look and feel
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
These satin pillowcases in silver are so luxurious looking and feeling! I flop around at night and need a pillowcase like this to prevent the rats’ nests that form in my fine hair.
The stitching is even and tight with no loose threads that I could see. The envelope pocket is plenty deep to keep your pillow contained.
I didn’t see any washing instructions but from experience I will give them a quick handwashing in the sink and hang to dry.

Nice Idea, Disappointing Reality
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
I really wanted to love these satin pillowcases, but they fell short. While they look nice at first and feel cool when you lay down, the material is very slippery and constantly slides around during the night. By morning, the pillowcase is usually twisted or halfway off the pillow.
They also feel thinner than expected and don’t hold up well after washing, even on a gentle cycle. For the price, I was hoping for better quality and durability. They might work for occasional use, but they didn’t meet my expectations for everyday sleep.

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.
