**A GUARDIAN , OBSERVER AND FINANCIAL TIMES 'BOOKS OF 2021' PICK** **A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF 2021** From the bestselling, award-winning author of Fun Home comes this Christmas's must-gift graphic novel. All her life, Alison Bechdel has searched for an elusive secret... The secret to superhuman strength. She has looked for it in her favourite books, the lives of her heroes, celibacy, polyamory, activism, therapy, and most obsessively, in her lifelong passion for exercise. Skiing, running, karate, cycling, yoga, weightlifting - you name it, she's tried it. "Oh, to be self-sufficient! Hard as a rock! An island!" But as she gets older, her body isn't getting any stronger. And in a changing, sometimes overwhelming world, are "cantaloupe-sized guns" all a person needs? Maybe the all-important secret is not where she expected to find it . . . ' The Secret to Superhuman Strength practically glows with a beguiling mixture of intellect, warmth and humour' Daily Telegraph In this, her third graphic memoir, Alison Bechdel has written a deeply layered, personal story about selfhood, self-sabotage, mortality, addiction, bliss, wonder, and the concerns of a generation. This is an extraordinary, laugh-out-loud chronicle of the conundrums we all grapple with as we seek our true place in the world. Truly, a must-gift book this Christmas.

Works really well. Great value for less
I'm genuinely impressed with the quality and performance it offers. From the moment I unboxed it, the product felt substantial and well-made, a clear indicator of the high-quality materials used. This is a device that feels like it's built to last. The performance lives up to the initial impression. The battery life is excellent, easily handling multiple uses without needing a recharge. When it does need power, the dual-charging option—either directly with a cable or through the convenient charging station—is a fantastic feature that adds to its versatility and ease of use. The assortment of included shaver heads and attachments is particularly impressive, offering a wide array of options that will likely satisfy any grooming need.

Great Design, Long Battery Life, and Excellent Performance
I really like this product. It’s nice-looking, well-finished, and pleasant to the touch. It’s very versatile! you can charge it on its stand or plug it directly into the wall if you want to bring it on a trip and skip the stand. I’ve used it several times and only had to recharge it once. the battery lasts a long time. It trims gently without irritation, works well on both body and facial hair, and the waterproof design makes it easy to clean. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and great for quick touch-ups without any hassle. Overall, a very good value for the price.

Excellent quality and looks beautiful
I really loved this product! I’ve already used it twice and it works excellently. The design is beautiful and feels very high-quality. The battery lasts a long time, which is a big plus, and the power is just right. One of the things I liked most is that it doesn’t hurt at all. I’ve tried other trimmers before that irritated my skin, and this one is very gentle. The size is perfect, compact and easy to pack, making it great for travel. Even my husband tried it and really liked it, which shows how versatile and well made this device is. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it.

Very Impressive little trimmer
This little trimmer packs a lot of power. It works so well. It is very light weight and quiet and definitely gets the job done. It leaves you feeling smooth and clean. It gets very close for a nice cut. The attachments are a nice bonus. The charge lasts a long time and the little base is convenient for charging and storing it. It is very easy to use and a great value for the money. I highly recommend!

Works Like Described
The color is nice. The device works best when hair is longer or there will be pain. I found it works better when used with a lather.
