Description:
I'm a God boy, Sister, 'I said. 'You don t have to worry about me, I'm a God boy.' Jimmy Sullivan believed he was protected by God until his parents 'unhappy marriage finally broke down, with tragic consequences. Now a disturbed thirteen-year-old at a Catholic boarding school, Jimmy rages at God for failing him as he tells of his own violent and obsessive reaction to the turbulent events of two years before. Through his uncomprehending and often humorous voice of tough indifference, a very adult drama emerges of marital strife, drunkenness and illicit abortion. Ian Cross vividly evokes life in a provincial New Zealand town in the 1950s, in his tale of the crippling of a bright and hopeful young mind.

Great quality liner for a good price
Color: Clear, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
Not all shower liners are equal! I don’t want to spend a fortune on one, but I do want decent quality. This liner is it! Clear so it lets light through, not too heavy or too light weight. The magnets actually work so the liner adheres to the tub and doesn’t get wrapped around you. Very pleased with the purchase.

Decent D U P E for QT
Color: Clear Hot Pink, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
Super cute. Love that it’s actually a vibrant hot pink (: (some other brands are much more diluted). This brand makes thicker versions in the colorful options (their palette seems like a nod to Quiet Town) but I went with the lighter weight one among their various options because it was cheaper. You can check out their store and find the thicker, more jelly like vibrant options for closer to $18 if you’re willing to pay more. I do think for how thin it is, it’s a little overpriced as most brands with this gauge of thickness run closer to $5-$8 and this one ran me about $9.99. Overall decent quality for a lightweight liner and decent vibrancy for a hot pink colored option. Just think it’s slightly overpriced for what you’re actually getting which is a liner on the lighter thinner side. I do like that it has a more shiny jelly like texture compared to regular thin shower liner competitors so that’s cool. Will add a pic later! Bottom line- if you’re just looking for a lightweight shower liner maybe with a little something extra like a fun color that has a smooth shiny texture, this one is decent if you don’t mind paying about $10 rather than $5-$8 like competitors. It is thin tho, make no mistake! But not so thin that it feels like it will rip immediately or anything like that. Their color options have nice saturation and modern tones- like their greens for example: one is a deep pine emerald and another a mint. Their orange is an amber hue. Whereas cheaper competitors that offer green and other colors are a more bland, corny tone. This brand offers varied levels of thickness/quality depending on how much you feel like spending (: gets the job done and brightens up the place. If you’re looking for a dupe for Quiet Town, you can find a somewhat decent vibe here in varies levels of quality.

Functional and Frosted! No Plastic Smell!
Color: Frosted, Size: 72"W x 78"L (Pack of 1)
This shower curtain liner from AmazerBath is exactly what I needed! It's short, to the point, and completely functional. The 72x78 size fits perfectly, and the frosted PEVA material adds a nice touch without being too distracting. I especially appreciate that it's made from sturdy material and doesn't have that loud plastic smell that some liners do. Highly recommend!

The curtain is not clear and does not stay clear if u have heavy water
Color: Clear Midnight, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
The shower curtain is okay, it’s nothing to brag about really. The shower curtain still does not stand clear due to the hardness of the water. I have to buy another shower curtain
