Edgar Award nominee stuns in this heartrending tale set in a Swaziland boarding school where two girls of different castes bond over a shared copy of Jane Eyre. Adele Joubert loves being one of the popular girls at Keziah Christian Academy. She knows the upcoming semester at school is going to be great with her best friend Delia at her side. Then Delia dumps her for a new girl with more money, and Adele is forced to share a room with Lottie, the school pariah, who doesn't pray and defies teachers' orders. But as they share a copy of Jane Eyre, Lottie's gruff exterior and honesty grow on Adele, and Lottie learns to be a little sweeter. Together, they take on bullies and protect each other from the vindictive and prejudiced teachers. Then a boy goes missing on campus and Adele and Lottie must rely on each other to solve the mystery and maybe learn the true meaning of friendship.Binding Type: Hardcover

Best watch for the retail price!
Color: 5885 blue dial
Ease of use:
All you have to do is put it on and it's self-winding and you never ever need to worry about batteries or winding it up! It's pretty accurate time as well and looks good! It's the best watch I've ever owned for this price and I even bought my son one for himself!

Real stainless band
Color: rose steel black dial, Color: rose steel black dial
My new favorite work watch. Wound up buying this after two failed attempts with other cheap watches from Wally world that turned my wrist black after the plating wore off in about three days. Learned my lesson. so far this thing keeps perfect time and does not turn my wrist black. Had to take a couple of links out for a perfect fit. So yeah, this will be the only brand of watch I will likely be buying from now on. Hope they’re around for a while.
Update* January 8 2026. Oh no, I had such high hopes for this watch brand BUT, I only had this watch for two months when it started dry moisture inside the crystal. No I am not a diver nor have I had the watch fully submerged. This thing is not water resistant at all. It may be great for Desert dwellers or for people who never take showers or baths with it on. Going back to my old favorite Armitron.

Love the OLEVS watches!!! They are all great looking and of high quality!!! You can tell as soon as you put it on your wrist that it is of high quality. The displays are gorgeous and easy to read. The ones with stainless steel straps are easy to remove links to adjust fit. If you keep your eye on the daily and lighting deals, you can catch them with great deals.
