ONE OF PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF 2019

From the New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Ruins, the first collection of short fiction from Jess Walter--a suite of diverse and searching stories about personal struggle and diminished dreams, all of them marked by the wry wit, keen eye, and generosity of spirit that has made him a bookseller and reader favorite

These twelve stories--published over the last five years in Harper's, The Best American Short Stories, McSweeney's, Playboy, and other publications--veer from comic tales of love to social satire to suspenseful crime fiction, from hip Portland to once-hip Seattle to never-hip Spokane, from a condemned casino in Las Vegas to a bottomless lake in the dark woods of Idaho. This is a world of lost fathers and redemptive conmen, of meth tweakers on desperate odysseys and men committing suicide by fishing.

We Live in Water is a darkly comic, heartfelt collection of stories from a "ridiculously talented writer" (New York Times), "one of the freshest voices in American literature" (Dallas Morning News).

Great product

Fits the remote perfectly and has a good tactile feel to it. The green color makes it easy to see where you set it down. It's a good value for the money.

A Durable and Convenient Protection Solution
Color: Green Orange
One of the most impressive attributes of these cases is their lightweight yet durable construction. The material feels robust and dependable, shielding my device from scratches, minor impacts, and everyday wear and tear. Despite this durability, the cases remain slim and non-bulky, preserving the device's original profile—a feature I deeply appreciate for maintaining portability and elegance. Another commendable aspect is the precise fit of the cases. Each case snugly wraps around the device, ensuring a secure grip and seamless alignment with buttons, ports, and camera cutouts. This level of precision adds to the ease of use and demonstrates a high attention to detail in the manufacturing process. Additionally, having two cases in one pack offers excellent value. It allows you to switch between them as needed or have a backup readily available. This small yet thoughtful feature adds a layer of convenience that sets this product apart from other single-case offerings.

Fits great
Color: Green
After my grandson keep bee lining for the remote, dropped it, which made a teeny chip in it-I decided to try a cover! This is really nice. It fits great. It has a nice grippy feel to it and now it's protected. We bought the lime green one, so now we can find it a lot easier as well as having it looking pretty sleek. It a great cover.

Much better fitting
Color: White
Had to buy 2 of these cases because the first one was so well done. I bought another brand and it was such a loose fit. These are awesome!
