Kit's LawIn this powerful novel from one of the most gifted storytellers to emerge from Canada since Carol Shields, we find "all the old fashioned virtues: a vivid sense of place, an intricate and suspenseful plot, and a feisty heroine whom we can't help rooting for on every page" (Margot Livesey).

In this powerful novel from one of the most gifted storytellers to emerge from Canada since Carol Shields, we find "all the old-fashioned virtues: a vivid sense of place, an intricate and suspenseful plot, and a feisty heroine whom we can't help rooting for on every page" (Margot Livesey). Kit Pitman is fourteen and lives in a ramshackle cottage on the outer banks of Newfoundland, where isolation is all she knows. The only visitors are fogbound fishermen and an occasional young man brought ashore to keep the bloodlines clean. But Kit's isolation is compounded by the mystery that surrounds her family and her illegitimate birth. Her mother, Josie, is mentally retarded and often runs wild among the clapboard houses that dot the shore. Meanwhile, her grandmother Lizzie staunchly guards them both from the disapproving glances pious townsfolk cast their way. But when Lizzie dies suddenly, Kit and her childlike mother are left vulnerable to life's harsh realities and to unexpected dangers that repeatedly threaten to break them apart. A wrenching story ensues, as Morrissey depicts with exceptional grace the way the lines between mother and daughter in this unlikely relationship, although blurred, are deeply felt. Kit's Law is a novel of extraordinary, almost mythical power and marks the debut of an enormous new talent.

Clean good
I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this trimmer is to handle. The design feels lightweight in my hand, and the gray color actually looks really sleek on my counter. The blades work smoothly without pulling, and it gives a neat trim without irritation. I like that it’s simple to clean and doesn’t take up much space in my drawer. The noise level is low enough that it doesn’t feel distracting, and the on/off button is placed in a way that makes it comfortable to use. It’s a straightforward tool that does exactly what I need, and it’s made my routine a lot quicker and more convenient.

Perfect size for my travel bag
I threw this trimmer in my bag for a weekend trip. It doesn’t take up much space, and it was charged before I left. Ended up using it at the hotel, and it was super quick to set up. I just trimmed, rinsed it under the sink, and done. The battery lasted the whole trip, I didn’t even bother packing the charger. I liked that it didn’t make a mess, which is usually my issue with razors when I’m away from home. It’s small and easy to hold, I didn’t feel like I needed a whole setup to use it. Now I actually keep it in my travel bag so I don’t forget next time. For trips where space is limited, this turned out to be a good little tool to have.

Quiet but Strong
The sound level surprised me. I expected a louder buzz, but it’s much quieter, which makes using it less stressful. The size is small enough to maneuver easily, but it doesn’t sacrifice strength. Even with thicker hair, it trims without pulling. That’s usually my main concern with electric tools, but this one feels secure and safe. Another thing I enjoy is how light it feels in my hand. I used it on my arms, legs, and bikini line, and I didn’t have to grip tightly. The design makes it simple to hold and move around curves without nicking the skin.

Great Trimmer for Sensitive Areas
I’ve been really happy with this Dermave bikini trimmer. It’s compact, easy to handle, and works well on delicate areas without causing nicks or irritation. The 2 in 1 feature is great. I use the smaller head for facial touch ups and the larger one for bikini and body areas. The ceramic blade glides smoothly and feels safer than traditional razors. I like that it’s waterproof, so I can use and rinse it in the shower. The charging dock keeps it neat and charges it quickly. Battery life has been solid so far. It’s also pretty quiet, which is a bonus. Whether you’re maintaining between waxes or just prefer trimming, this is a reliable and gentle option.
