An Orange Prize Finalist

Nagasaki, August 9, 1945. Hiroko Tanaka watches her lover from the veranda as he leaves. Sunlight streams across Urakami Valley, and then the world goes white.

In the devastating aftermath of the atomic bomb, Hiroko leaves Japan in search of new beginnings. From Delhi, amid India's cry for independence from British colonial rule, to New York City in the immediate wake of 9/11, to the novel's astonishing climax in Afghanistan, a violent history casts its shadow the entire world over. Sweeping in its scope and mesmerizing in its evocation of time and place, this is a tale of love and war, of three generations, and three world-changing historic events. Kamila Shamsie's Burnt Shadows is a story for our time by a writer of immense ambition and strength. . . . This is an absorbing novel that commands in the reader a powerful emotional and intellectual response (Salman Rushdie).

So sparkly
Color: Gold
This works so good. I like my glitter to stick all over my body and this will stick as long as you rub it in a little. But there is alot of fallout so be careful where you spray it

Shining Shimmering Splendid
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
Alright, first of all I LOVE the packaging and the spray bottle. Absolutely adorable! Aesthetics are off the charts. As for the actual power and look of the glitter, it is pretty good. I tried to take photos of it on my hands/arms but the camera has a really hard time picking up the small glitter. In person it will give you a shiny or shimmery look rather than coated in gold. Not quite what I was hoping for, but definitely a cool look! The spray is quite powerful, so be aware of where you are putting it on. It is very easy to apply, just keep in mind that glitter will go EVERYWHERE. It also comes off easily enough either by rubbing a cloth or washing with water.

love love loved it
I am now 55 years old and i love shinny stuff, so i decided I wanted glitter for my hair. I found this and am in love. It is very fine glitter and it just goes on my hair every so subtly. It catches the sun just right and i sparkle just like my personality. Not too much too look crazy just enough to look nice. Looks good on the arms and legs too for a night of dancing.
