AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK | A USA TODAY BESTSELLER
#1 New York Times bestselling author Wally Lamb, celebrated for two prior Oprah’s Book Club selections, returns with an exceptional third pick, an “incandescent” (Oprah Daily) novel following a young father grappling with unbearable tragedy as he searches for hope, redemption, and the possibility of forgiveness.
Corby Ledbetter is struggling. New fatherhood, the loss of his job, and a growing secret addiction have thrown his marriage to his beloved Emily into a tailspin. And that’s before he causes the tragedy that tears the family apart. Sentenced to prison, Corby struggles to survive life on the inside, where he bears witness to frightful acts of brutality but also experiences small acts of kindness and elemental kinship with a prison librarian who sees his light and some of his fellow offenders, including a tender-hearted cellmate and a troubled teen desperate for a role model. Buoyed by them and by his mother’s enduring faith in him, Corby begins to transcend the boundaries of his confinement, sustained by his hope that mercy and reconciliation might still be possible. Can his crimes ever be forgiven by those he loves?
An “immersive novel of redemption” (The New Yorker), The River Is Waitingis another “soul-wrenching” (NPR) masterpiece from celebrated author Wally Lamb.

Good product
Scent: Scented, Size: 26 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This body wash makes my skin feel SO much softer and less dry. I especially notice a difference when my skin is feeling extra thirsty or Florida-weather confused 😅☀️. It lathers nicely, smells clean without being overpowering, and doesn’t leave my skin feeling stripped afterward. The hyaluronic acid sounds fancy and skincare-science-y, but whatever it’s doing, my skin seems happy about it 😂 Just a really nice everyday body wash that feels a little more luxe than the price.

Hydrates even dragon skin
Scent: Scented, Size: 26 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As someone who survives Northeast winters with skin that reacts like it’s being punished for existing — flaky, angry, and audibly crunchy — I can confidently say this body wash is a full-blown miracle in a bottle. If you’ve ever woken up in a radiator-heated apartment feeling like your shins have been slow-roasted overnight, this is for you.
First off, the scent is light and pleasant, like what I imagine clouds would smell like if they went to therapy. But the real magic is in the feel - - - silky, smooth, and somehow more hydrating than most moisturizers I’ve tried. This stuff lathers like a dream and rinses off clean, but leaves your skin feeling like it just drank a gallon of water and booked a spa day.
I’m not saying I have dragon skin, but if Drogon from Game of Thrones took a hot shower in my apartment, I’d lather him up with this and send him off glowing. Thanks to the Vitamin B3 and hyaluronic acid, my skin no longer flakes off like parmesan cheese every time I take off a sweater.
Winter in the Northeast is basically a four-month battle between you and every heating unit trying to desiccate you like jerky. This body wash is your secret weapon. Honestly, it should come with a tiny cape.
Five stars. Ten if you’ve ever itched your shin so hard in February that you briefly considered moving to Florida.
