At turns heartbreaking, uplifting, fiercely romantic, and riotously funny, Queen of America tells the unforgettable story of a young woman coming of age and finding her place in a new world.

Beginning where Luis Alberto Urrea's bestselling The Hummingbird's Daughter left off, Queen of America finds young Teresita Urrea, beloved healer and "Saint of Cabora," with her father in 1892 Arizona. But, besieged by pilgrims in desperate need of her healing powers, and pursued by assassins, she has no choice but to flee the borderlands and embark on an extraordinary journey into the heart of turn-of-the-century America.

Teresita's passage will take her to New York, San Francisco, and St. Louis, where she will encounter European royalty, Cuban poets, beauty queens, anxious immigrants and grand tycoons -- and, among them, a man who will force Teresita to finally ask herself the ultimate question: is a saint allowed to fall in love?

too soft, useless. but cool, kindah
Set name: UltraCool Pillow, Standard - Medium/Firm Firmness, Item length width: 30.0 Inches
the problem with these "cooling" pillows is any cooling effect is almost completely negated by a pillow case. this particular pillow is cool to the touch, but completely useless as it flattens out completely, way too soft I think for anyone. I would not recommend this "NASA" pillow for anyone for anything. Maybe for 10 bucks, but certainly not what they ask for this. I did keep it though. It is "cool" but only for a moment and your flipping it around like any other pillow. also way too soft. BUt, it has been cool enough to get me back to sleep.

Love it
Set name: UltraCool Pillow, King - Soft/Medium Firmness, Item length width: 40.0 Inches
I really like this pillow!! It’s a nice medium fluff. I do think it feels cooler. And, when you flip to the “cool side of the pillow” it’s realllly chilly. It’s very long - it sticks out of my king size pillowcase a little bit - but not enough to be bothered by it.

Excellent !!
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Color: Original White
Like many other folks my age, I suffer with Neck & Shoulder pain throughout the night. I have bought and tried several Gel-Foam Bed Pillows, even the contoured pillows. None of these pillows can compare to the Vaverto Memory Form Pillows !! These Vaverto's Pillows are the Best Supported and Comfort Gel-Infused Pillows I have ever slept on !! They have just the right amount of firmness for good neck support. I Highly Recommended These "Vaverto Memory Foam Pillows" For Neck Pain Relief And A Good Nights Sleep !! JimA, Mt.Vernon, Mo.

Nice Pillows!
Size: King (Pack of 2), Color: Original White
Very nice, quality pillows. They came compressed but expanded very quickly when the plastic wrapping was removed. They are a bit firm but are very comfortable and soft. Very pleased with the pillows.
