Science fiction icon Connie Willis brilliantly mixes a speculative plot, the wit of Nora Ephron, and the comedic flair of P. G. Wodehouse in Crosstalk--a genre-bending novel that pushes social media, smartphone technology, and twenty-four-hour availability to hilarious and chilling extremes as one young woman abruptly finds herself with way more connectivity than she ever desired.

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR

In the not-too-distant future, a simple outpatient procedure to increase empathy between romantic partners has become all the rage. And Briddey Flannigan is delighted when her boyfriend, Trent, suggests undergoing the operation prior to a marriage proposal--to enjoy better emotional connection and a perfect relationship with complete communication and understanding. But things don't quite work out as planned, and Briddey finds herself connected to someone else entirely--in a way far beyond what she signed up for.

It is almost more than she can handle--especially when the stress of managing her all-too-eager-to-communicate-at-all-times family is already burdening her brain. But that's only the beginning. As things go from bad to worse, she begins to see the dark side of too much information, and to realize that love--and communication--are far more complicated than she ever imagined.

Praise for Crosstalk

"A rollicking send-up of obsessive cell phone usage in too-near-future America . . . Connie] Willis's canny incorporation of scientific lore, and a riotous cast . . . make for an engaging girl-finally-finds-right-boy story that's unveiled with tact and humor. Willis juxtaposes glimpses of claimed historical telepaths with important reflections about the ubiquity of cell phones and the menace that unscrupulous developers of technology pose to privacy, morality, and emotional stability."--Publishers Weekly

"An exhilarating and laugh-inducing read . . . one of those rare books that will keep you up all night long because you can't bear to put it down."--Portland Book Review

"A fun technological fairy tale."--BookPage

"One of the funniest SF novels in years."--Locus

Dove Body Wash Rebalance
Scent: Peach, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My order arrived quickly, and it was packaged very well. Dove Body Wash Rebalance White Peach & Rice Milk is moisturizing. It is compatible with my skin type, and it is effective in combating dry skin. This a great product with a nice light scent that I highly recommend.

Nice gentle body wash
Scent: Pomegranate & Hibiscus, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love the shampoo it lathers on nicely and smells wonderful for the price it's fantastic. Hard to go wrong with a classic brand like Dove. I personally don't get the 24hr lotion support however. My skin still feels fairly dry by morning after taking a shower a night. Might be another cause but this hasn't seemed to help much. At very least however it leaves me feeling cleaning and smelling nice for the night.

Scent: Peach, Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is hands down the best body wash of all time. I feel really clean and my skin feels extra moisturized. I've never used a better body was in all my 32 years. My holy grail. I've tried most of their scents in this line... and this is my humble opinion on the scents: 1. This White Peach & Rice Milk scent is the best one. By far. It's just a very girly, flowery, fresh scent. It makes my shower feel like I'm at the spa, every time. It's leagues ahead of the other scents. 2. The Coconut & Cocoa Butter smells like you'd imagine it to smell. Delicious! 3. The Mango & Almond Butter. Ya know... at first... this was my favorite. However, the more showers I took.. the less I liked this scent and found myself missing the white peach scent. 4. Shea Butter & Vanilla. I originally thought this would be my favorite scent but it's just... okay. I'm usually a shea butter & vanilla girly through and through. But this one left me underwhelmed. Still a great body wash, though. 5. Just the regular degular dove body wash. The scent is still nice if you don't like scents. 6. By far the worst dove body wash scent (although it isn't in this line) is the Dove Men + Care Blackcurrent & Cedarwood scent. Immediately no. (The Coconut & Pink Jasmine deodorant smells sooooo good, by the way.) That's all. Buy it! You won't regret it :)
