Like many ambitious New York City teenagers, Craig Gilner sees entry into Manhattan's Executive Pre-Professional High School as the ticket to his future. Determined to succeed at life--which means getting into the right high school to get into the right college to get the right job--Craig studies night and day to ace the entrance exam, and does. That's when things start to get crazy."Intimate, real, funny, ironic...This book offers hope in a package that readers will find enticing.", Booklist
"Insightful and utterly authentic...this is an important book.", The New York Times Book Review
At his new school, Craig realizes that he isn't brilliant compared to the other kids; he's just average, and maybe not even that. He soon sees his once-perfect future crumbling away. The stress becomes unbearable and Craig stops eating and sleeping--until, one night, he nearly kills himself. Craig's suicidal episode gets him checked into a mental hospital, where his new neighbors include a transsexual sex addict, a girl who has scarred her own face with scissors, and the self-elected President Armelio. There, isolated from the crushing pressures of school and friends, Craig is finally able to confront the sources of his anxiety. Ned Vizzini, who himself spent time in a psychiatric hospital, has created a remarkably moving tale about the sometimes unexpected road to happiness. For a novel about depression, it's definitely a funny story. "Funny... Vizzini supplies personal insights and a clever, self-deprecating tone that make the book an entertaining read." - The Washington Post

Solid all-around watch
Color: Grey
I was looking for something that I could wear just about anywhere. I wouldn't wear this to the gym, but it looks good in casual, work, elevated, and even some dress environment. Black-tie, I might look for something a bit more elegant, but 95% of the time, this watch fits.
Keeps good time. I haven't witnessed a full 80 hour power reserve yet, but I also can't say that I ever needed that much. Lume is nice, just give it a chance to charge up.
I like this more than the PRX. It's a more classic look, I think PRX will look silly in a short time in comparison.

Excellent value, beautiful aesthetics
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
This watch confirms what is mentioned in reviews all over the internet- a great value proposition in so many ways. Accuracy has been +3s/week, well within specification, and rivals that of much more expensive watches, including chronometers. The bracelet has a quality feel and heft, and the case contours nicely to the wrist and is very comfortable. The green dial appears to change color with different angles and absolutely pops in the sunlight. Highly recommended, even as a first automatic/mechanical watch.

Very well built, will last you a very long time
Style: Trifold, Style: Trifold
This wallet is very sturdy, and barely has any wear on it after I've purchased it over a year ago. Most wallets will start to greatly scuff, wear, or degrade/break down just from being taken in and out of your pocket but this wallet has held up particularly wear with VERY MINIMAL light scuffing. Quality leather so I know I will have this wallet for a very long time! It has great card holding capacity as i currently have about 10 cards in it and it still has a pretty slim profile. The wallet itself is a very nice, natural looking wallet. The ease of pulling cards in and out definitely has made me a fan.

Rugged, Stylish, and Built to Last
Style: Bi-fold
I bought this Carhartt oil-tan leather wallet for my husband, and it’s exactly what I hoped for. The leather feels thick and high quality, with that classic rugged Carhartt look. The stitching is solid, and it’s clear this wallet will hold up for years of daily use.
It has plenty of card slots and an ID window, but still stays slim enough to fit comfortably in a back pocket. The canvas lining is a nice touch, and the embossed Carhartt logo adds just the right amount of style.
It even came packaged in a collectible tin, which made it perfect for gifting. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a durable, functional, and great-looking wallet!
