A NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS' CHOICE - AN NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR - A LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST - A TIME MUST-READ BOOK OF THE YEAR - A KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR "A heartfelt portrait of a complex family." --People - "Laugh-out-loud-funny." --Harper's Bazaar - "Quintessential rom-com meets the delicious family sprawl of a Russian classic." --Vanity Fair The "brilliant" (Daily Mail, London) bestseller that follows a brother and sister as they navigate queerness, multiracial identity, and family drama, all while flailing their way to love--for fans of Schitt's Creek and Sally Rooney's Normal People. It's been a year since his ex-boyfriend dumped him and moved from Auckland to Buenos Aires, and Valdin is doing fine. He has a good flat with his sister Greta, a good career where his colleagues only occasionally remind him that he is the sole Maaori person in the office, and a good friend who he only sleeps with when he's sad. But when work sends him to Argentina and he's thrown back in his former lover's orbit, Valdin is forced to confront the feelings he's been trying to ignore--and the future he wants. Greta is not letting her painfully unrequited crush (or her possibly pointless master's thesis, or her pathetic academic salary...) get her down. She would love to focus on the charming fellow grad student she meets at a party and her friendships with a circle of similarly floundering twenty-somethings, but her chaotic family life won't stop intruding: her mother is keeping secrets, her nephew is having a gay crisis, and her brother has suddenly flown to South America without a word. Filled with "kernels of humor and truth" (Elle) and with an undeniable emotional momentum that builds to an exuberant conclusion, Greta & Valdin careens us through the siblings' misadventures and the messy dramas of their sprawling, eccentric Maaori-Russian-Catalonian family. An acclaimed bestseller in New Zealand, Greta & Valdin is fresh, joyful, and alive with the possibility of love in its many mystifying forms.Author: Rebecca K. Reilly

Great Quality!
These sublimated beautifully. I went looking for times and temps in the reviews, but not a lot of people share that information, so I want to say what worked for me. Here's what I did, and it worked great the first time. I sized my image a little bigger, 9.5 in width, and 8 in height. I then placed a thin dish towel over my image and pressed the image for 60 seconds at 400 degrees. It came out vibrant and perfectly coated the full mouse pad. Would recommend. I'll be buying again.

Great sublimation mouse pads
A-sub always has the best sublimation products in my opinion. And love the fact that they come with their own packing bags.

Takes color like a dream — perfect for gifts or selling!
When I tell you this mousepad takes color — I mean it! The colors come out vibrant, crisp, and absolutely gorgeous. We use these to make custom designs that we sell to raise money for our cat rescue, and they’ve been a hit every time. The quality is consistent and impressive, which is so important when you’re producing items to resell or gift.
What I love most is that no time or temp adjustments were needed — straight out of the box, these performed exactly as expected. The finished product looks clean and professional, with no weird fuzziness or fading.
Highly recommend if you’re doing sublimation work, whether for fun, fundraising, or business. These mousepads never disappoint!
