"So delicately calibrated and precisely beautiful that one might not immediately sense the sledgehammer of pain building inside this book. And I mean that in the best way. What powerful tension and depth this provides "--Aimee Bender

Fourteen-year-old Linda lives with her parents in the beautiful, austere woods of northern Minnesota, where their nearly abandoned commune stands as a last vestige of a lost counter-culture world. Isolated at home and an outlander at school, Linda is drawn to the enigmatic, attractive Lily and new history teacher Mr. Grierson. When Mr. Grierson is charged with possessing child pornography, the implications of his arrest deeply affect Linda as she wrestles with her own fledgling desires and craving to belong.

And then the young Gardner family moves in across the lake and Linda finds herself welcomed into their home as a babysitter for their little boy, Paul. It seems that her life finally has purpose but with this new sense of belonging she is also drawn into secrets she doesn't understand. Over the course of a few days, Linda makes a set of choices that reverberate throughout her life. As she struggles to find a way out of the sequestered world into which she was born, Linda confronts the life-and-death consequences of the things people do--and fail to do--for the people they love.

Winner of the McGinnis-Ritchie award for its first chapter, Emily Fridlund's propulsive and gorgeously written History of Wolves introduces a new writer of enormous range and talent.

Great conditioner in a cute and eco-friendly package
I absolutely LOVE their sun lotions, and then tried their shampoos, and just fall in love with those too! Now I am on their conditioner. I have to admit it is way lighter texture than I expected, but I guess it was designed for that given the instructions being shake it before usage. For a thin hair like me, I only use conditioner twice per week, so it works great for me. Easy to wash off, and it does not have the wax-ish feeling that some other conditioners do. It made on my 2024 list so far. Just love it

Great for thin loose curls
Ive used this in my 4 year old daughters loose curls for a couple years now and its a good less toxic, less ingredient option. Smells nice and works pretty well. I don’t care for the containers it comes in because if they stay very wet in the shower they start to get moldy and if you aren’t careful you can pour way to much out but I still keep re-purchasing.

Smells bad
This product smells like acetone, which makes me believe that the ingredients might have gone bad. The matching shampoo smells good and no issue there but this conditioner is questionable.

Love it!
I've always been a fan of Babo's amazing sunscreens, so when I heard they were diving into hair care, I was intrigued. And let me tell you, their natural conditioner doesn't disappoint! It works like a charm, leaving my hair silky smooth. Plus, knowing Babo's dedication to eco-friendly sun protection, I'm all in for this refreshing addition (and packaging) to their lineup. It's a win-win for my hair and the planet!

Very liquidy
Spilled from the spout because it was too liquidy for a conditioner- more of a body wash consistency.
