NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the co-author of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society comes a wise, witty, and exuberant novel, perfect for fans of Lee Smith, that illuminates the power of loyalty and forgiveness, memory and truth, and the courage it takes to do what's right. Annie Barrows once again evokes the charm and eccentricity of a small town filled with extraordinary characters. Her new novel, The Truth According to Us, brings to life an inquisitive young girl, her beloved aunt, and the alluring visitor who changes the course of their destiny forever. In the summer of 1938, Layla Beck's father, a United States senator, cuts off her allowance and demands that she find employment on the Federal Writers' Project, a New Deal jobs program. Within days, Layla finds herself far from her accustomed social whirl, assigned to cover the history of the remote mill town of Macedonia, West Virginia, and destined, in her opinion, to go completely mad with boredom. But once she secures a room in the home of the unconventional Romeyn family, she is drawn into their complex world and soon discovers that the truth of the town is entangled in the thorny past of the Romeyn dynasty. At the Romeyn house, twelve-year-old Willa is desperate to learn everything in her quest to acquire her favorite virtues of ferocity and devotion--a search that leads her into a thicket of mysteries, including the questionable business that occupies her charismatic father and the reason her adored aunt Jottie remains unmarried. Layla's arrival strikes a match to the family veneer, bringing to light buried secrets that will tell a new tale about the Romeyns. As Willa peels back the layers of her family's past, and Layla delves deeper into town legend, everyone involved is transformed--and their personal histories completely rewritten. Praise for The Truth According to Us "As delightfully eccentric as Guernsey yet refreshingly different . . . an epic but intimate family novel with richly imagined characters . . . Willa's indomitable spirit, keen sense of adventure and innate intelligence reminded me of two other motherless girls in literature: Scout Finch in Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird and Flavia de Luce in Alan Bradley's big-hearted British mystery series."--The Washington Post"The Truth According to Us has all the characteristics of a great summer read: A plot that makes you want to keep turning the pages; a setting that makes you feel like you're inhabiting another time and place; and characters who become people you're sad to leave behind--and thus who always stay with you."--Miami Herald "It takes a brave author to make the heroine of a new novel an observant and feisty girl . . . like Scout Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird. . . . But Barrows . . . has created a believable and touching character in Willa."--USA Today " A] heartwarming coming-of-age novel that] sparkles with folksy depictions of a tight-knit family and life in a small town . . . full of richly drawn, memorable characters."--The Seattle Times "A big, juicy family saga with warm humor and tragic twists . . . The story gets more and more absorbing as it moves briskly along."--St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Annie Barrows leaves no doubt that she is a storyteller of rare caliber, with wisdom and insight to spare. Every page rings like a bell."--Paula McLain, author of The Paris Wife

Non-greasy, light coverage
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc
I have been using this tinted sunscreen for 2 weeks now, and it has provided the level of sunblock that I need. Living in a high-altitude desert, my fair skin shows sunspots with minutes after sun exposure without sun block. This tinted sunscreen is now part of my daily routine. The pump dispenser allows for an easy application. I use about 2 full pumps for full coverage.
This sunscreen has a really nice scent to it as well. It is also not greasy at all, which is very important to me. I have gone to work with just the sunscreen on my skin but usually apply a tinted mineral powder after the sun screen. This is mostly for the tint, as the sunscreen truly does not leave my face shiny or greasy at all.
I do want to repeat that this product has also prevented sun spots for me, which is the primary reason I include sunscreen every morning. The tint is light enough that it blends fully, but does provide a nice even tone. Highly recommend this product.

Emgmcp Tinted Sunscreen for Face SPF 50 Broad Spectrum, Hydrating Oil-Free Sheer Tint
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc
What I ordered: Tinted Sunscreen for Face SPF 50 Broad Spectrum, Hydrating Oil-Free Sheer Tint, No White Cast & Sweat Resistant, Tinted Moisturizer for Natural Glow, Non-Sticky Daily Sun Cream (1pc)
What I received: as above (as labeled).
This has to be the absolute worst sunscreen I've ever tried.
The ingredient listing is incomplete (see my photo) as there is no ingredient to account for the "tint" (at the very least).
The only active ingredient (actual sunscreen) is titanium dioxide.
Although slightly tinted, it still leaves a light cast even on my pale skin.
It's leaves a horribly oily/greasy film on the skin, and it pills horribly.
If you care enough about your skin to use a daily sunscreen, it's worth getting a known brand with full ingredient disclosure and proven skin protection.
This C-beauty sunscreen is not it.
I don't consider this a quality product nor a good value, even at it's nominal cost at the time of my review.
I cannot in good conscience recommend this product - it's a huge disappointment.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Color: 1pc
This tinted sunscreen is absolutely fantastic! The SPF 50 broad-spectrum protection keeps my skin safe all day, and the universal tint blends seamlessly with my complexion without leaving a white cast. It feels lightweight, non-greasy, and gives my skin a healthy, natural glow. I love that it simplifies my routine by combining sun protection and a subtle skin-evening tint in one step. It sits so well under makeup- even though makeup isn’t even necessary because this sunscreen evens out your complexion so well. As someone is is a little nervous going bare face, I love having this as an option for going to the pool or beach, and on hot summer days. Definitely a five-star product I’ll keep repurchasing!

Long lasting ,easy to apply, strong sun blocking
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc

I’ve tried a lot of sunscreens over the years, but the Emgmcp Universal Moisturizing Sunscreen with SPF 50 PA+++ stands out. It goes on smoothly—none of that sticky or greasy feeling some sunscreens leave behind—and it actually stays put, even when you’re out and about for hours. I used it for a long day outside and didn’t get burned at all, so the sun protection really does what it promises.
The best part? It feels lightweight and comfortable, almost like a moisturizer rather than a typical sunscreen. If you want something that’s easy to apply and genuinely keeps the sun off, this one is worth trying. I’d give it a solid 5 stars.
